Miss Georgia Milk Bottle all embossed bottle
Anchor Hocking Glass (number 5 is the bottle mold number) - Never assume the lid description is what the bottle held, lids are interchangeable. Your lid probably came off a Miss Georgia Milk bottle. - Below is the same bottle with a red cap;

thanks for the help, I thought since the lid fit so well it was original to the bottle. thanks!
The link below shows one with what they describe as "the original lid" - red cap with a white peacock design - I see several others with the same lids but also one with a white snowflake design instead of peacock - Anchor hocking also made these bottle designs with the neck straight up, not slanted to the side like yours. - you can google "anchor hocking refrigerator bottles" and see a lot of them, they were for water, juice, milk, etc. - link to the one on ebay with picture of lid;

And don't just throw away the cap just because it's not original to the bottle - the cap itself is collectible to a milk bottle collector and may in fact be worth more than the bottle itself.
Thanks, everyone!
