This is the next generation of Edison oil bottles, the flask type. The top row is the fronts and the bottom row is the backs with Edisons signature. The embossings are primarily the same with changes in the word Incorporated or Divison. Backs on later bottles had the addition of Trade/Mark/Reg U.S./Patt. Off. I have three different bottles that I found as follows:1st one Thomas A Edison Incorporated Bloomfield NJ. Owens Illinois mark on bottom-Clear, Next Primary Battery Division, I in a diamond mark on bottom-Green Tint, Back has addition of the trade mark etc., Next Same embossing front and back, Triangle T marking on bottom-Clear. Wish I could get better pictures of the embossings.
