  • Details
    The Illinois Glass Company was started by William Eliot Smith and Edward Levis, incorporating at Alton, Illinois in March of 1873. During the earlier years, many of their bottles carried an “I. G. CO.” mark, and later an “I G CO inside a diamond” logo.

    This “I inside a Diamond” mark was used by Illinois Glass from 1915 up to 1929, and is seen on large numbers of antique and vintage glass bottles of many types. ABM (Automatic bottle machine) production was begun at Illinois Glass in 1910, and although it seems more likely the “I in a diamond” trademark would have been first used around that same time, the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office data indicates Illinois Glass Company actually claimed that use of this particular trademark on glassware began on June 1, 1915. However, the trademark was not officially registered until March 1, 1927 (TM #224,561).

    The “I in a diamond” mark is seen on HUGE numbers of containers. The great majority of these bottles were made in clear glass, with a smaller percentage found in amber glass, light aqua, or occasionally cobalt blue.
