>I am trying to ID a bottle base from a site in New Orleans.  The base is 8cm in diameter and is embossed "C B" over "K" in the center and "1261" around the out side edge of the conical base.  I have never seen this mark before and can't find it in any references that I have.  If anyone knows anything about this base mark please let me know.
