Is this a Clark bottle for a 15cm projectile

Is this a Clark bottle for a German 15cm projectile or is it simply a beer/wine bottle?

I have both bottle designs for the 7.7cm, as well as the 10.5cm projectiles, and the bottle from the 9cm Mauser Minenwerfer, but have never been able to track down one of the larger bottles.

Cheers

Hi all
On the subject of German gas bottles, would anyone have any technical drawings or photo's of the 15cm gas shell and bottle used by the Germans?
Also, (and probably a million dollar question), has anyone ever seen a bottle for 15cm gas shell for sale. Been trying for a long, long time to find one....

Peteblight, any chance you could post a pic of the 10.5cm bottle you have? I'd be interested in having a peek!
Many thanks!
