Your bottle is from approx 1937 to 1950 and is a DEBOSSED BOTTLE meaing the letters are cut into the glass and not raised up. When you run your fingernail over the words Dr Pepper it will fall into the letters and not rise up. The town/state names will be on the bottom. These are common.
The EMBOSSED BOTTLES were from approx 1926 to 1935/7 or so are are rare. They will have the town/states name on the heel and Dr Pepper either in script or block letters will be on the bottom.
See pic below of an EMBOSSED Dr Pepper bottle.

The pic below is of the first Good for Life Dr Pepper bottles in approx 1926/1927
One has no clock dial on the back and the other one has the clock dial. On the front, the 6 1/2 oz is about 1-1/2" from the heel, and both have Dr Pepper in block letters on the bottom and Waco, Tex. on the heel. These two bottles are super rare. These two bottles came from the well at the Dr Pepper Museum in Waco, Texas. The well is in the bottling room and and was no longer being used, so the employees began the throw all the busted bottles down into the well.

Nice info. Yes this bottle was later, see where the 6-1/2oz are. This info was from 1929
The higher the oz markings, the earlier the bottle.If so, then I'm wondering where my bottle with the clock dial on the back and 6 1/2 ozs up from the heel is in the chronology of the Good For Life bottles?
