Thanks beebs that limited the age to the 1930's-40's...Anyone know the value of them? I have a clear one too but i know that that is a really common one. They were found with a couple of the cd 145 style with a B on the front skirt

stuff like that is getting really hard to find out on the lines. Unfortunately, that shade of amber is rather common for that CD. They are worth about $15-20 each.
