Anchor Hocking basically used only three markings over its history. The original "HG over Co" was used from 1905 until 1937, the "anchor over H" used from 1937 until 1968, and the "anchor in the square" mark used from 1968 until recently. The company has started using a stylizied "anchor over H" in the last few years.
 
ANCHOR-HOCKING (1905-2015):
Anchor Hocking Company is a manufacturer of glassware that was founded in 1905 by Isaac Collins in Ohio and named after the Hocking River. 
That company merged with the Anchor Cap and Closure Corporation in 1937.  Hence the name Anchor-Hocking. From 1937 to 1983 the company operated the oldest glass manufacturing facility in the United States, established in 1863, in Salem New Jersey. 
In 1987, the Newell Company acquired Anchor Hocking Corporation.
In 2012, then-owner Monomoy merged Anchor Hocking with Oneida and created EveryWare Global. EveryWare Global filed for bankruptcy in 2015.
