            Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-8 
 
Gentlemen: 
 
            At your request, we have examined the Registration Statement, 
together with exhibits thereto, to be filed by you in connection with the 
registration of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common
Stock"), of Owens-Illinois, Inc. (the "Company"), to be offered or sold to 
participants in the Fourth Amended and Restated Owens-Illinois, Inc. Stock 
Purchase and Savings Program, the Second Amended and Restated Owens-Illinois,
Inc. Non-Union Retirement and Savings Plan, the Second Amended and Restated 
Owens-Illinois, Inc. Supplemental Retirement Plan and the Second Amended and 
Restated Owens-Illinois, Inc. Long-Term Savings Plan (collectively, the
"Plans"). We are familiar with the proceedings undertaken by the Company in 
connection with the Plans and the authorization of the issuance of Common 
Stock thereunder, and have examined such documents and such questions of law 
and fact as we have deemed necessary in order to express the opinions 
contained herein. 
 
            Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that, as of the date 
hereof, the 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock which may be issued by the 
Company to each of the trusts maintained pursuant to the Plans, when and if so 
issued in accordance with the terms of the Plans, will be duly authorized, 
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 
 
            We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to 
the Registration Statement. 
 
                                                Very truly yours,
