the bottle o the right is a shoo-fly flask it held whiskey. All your bottles are fairly common but you did well. I'd say you have 20 dollars worth of bottles listed. The shoo-fly is 3-4 dollars. The Swayzee's is a 10-15 dollar bottle i think.

You may get $10 to $15 for a Swayzees if you have rich green to apple green color, otherwise $5 is about all you'll get for aquas.  Is there embossment on the amethyst jar?  I like the looks of that one.

All the meds are common, but very cool.  These days $6 for the lot is about right unless you have ponitls (pontiled Jaynes are a bit more valued, but still common).
