I got this email from Wheaton about the vial.........."The T.C.W.Co. trademark was used by the Wheaton Glass Company from 1901 to 1946. So, it would be safe to say that your bottle was made before 1946. However, we cannot determine when the NO-SOL-VIT was first imprinted into the bottles. We do know that it was still being pressed into the glass as part of the mold in the early 1970's because we talked with someone who worked in the plant then.

I talked to people in the Science products company of Wheaton Industries trying to determine from them when the NO-SOL-VIT was first used and they don't know. Our Museum of American Glass does not have a ready reference that we can look up.
If you Google NO-SOL-VIT there are several articles about Wheaton Industries and the glass they made.

I hope this information is helpful."
