Did I get this brand name right? It’s how it appears on the bottom of the jar at least to my eye. I found this with my great-grandfather’s stuff along with a Pyrex 45 jar & another unmarked one. It measures about 11 inches tall. Any other info about this would be really helpful. Thanks!
(I’ll post a pic in a minute)

Ruby, I’d say it was this. Looks like a chemistry bottle. :)

B.& A.C.CO…………Baker & Adamson Chemical Company ([phone number removed]). Producer of acids and other chemicals. Although not the mark of a glass factory, this may be mistaken for one. Seen on the base of chemical and acid jars and bottles, most of which probably date from the early period — 1881 to 1900. B&A was bought by General Chemical in 1900, and in 1913 General became a division of Allied Chemical & Dye Corporation, later Allied Chemical Corp. ACC merged into Allied-Signal and that company is now part of Honeywell, Inc.
