Found this bottle during a long trek near some factory housing c.1900. Not really sure what company it is and would love some help on this. The photo attached of the bottom shows the numbers 4 2 and a square with a zero in it.

"Square with an O in it" is the mark used by the Owens Glass Company which used it from 1919 until 1929. The numbers are factory and date codes with the right number always being the year. In your case, 1922. Although generic, I love these clean meds. Leave it in the window. I had one turn smoky.
