I know what it is, just looking for thoughts on it's age....

I found this a while back and didn't give it a lot of thought until I noticed a few small bubbles in the glass. That got me wondering about it's age, any ideas? The acid bottle, not the others. I just used the cobalt to help the embossing show up in the pic. It's about 6 inches tall.

Can't read what is printed on bottle. Any seam lines or markings on the bottom.

"DIL ACID HYDROCHLORIC HCL" with a faint circle around it, and it looks like "MBW USA" on the bottom. Seam up both sides and stops at the base of the neck.

just noticed it looked like "OIL ACID" in the pic.....
