Thanks for your enquiry David. Based on the glass manufacturer's marks on the bottom of the bottle, this bottle of 'O-Cedar' polish was manufactured in the UK sometime between 1954-1968. It is worth noting that O-Cedar Limited of Slough, Berkshire appears to be a subsidiary or agent for the original O-Cedar brand, Channell Chemical Company, Chicago, Illinois.

What is the date range for this type of bottle? We have one of these without the label in our museum in Chappell Hill, Texas USA, found in a log cabin.
