Thanks so much CanadianBottles your info has been invaluable. I will just look for the sodas & the Blue Bottles from that era. The bottles have been in the dirt for 40+ years & have no labels or caps on them. The ones that do have caps are really, really rusted. I will throw back all the other bottles that are not Sodas or Blue Bottles. I could sell them on Ebay but I would have to pay like 10 - 15% Commission & like a Dollar to put the bottles on so it wouldn't be worth it unless I sold Lots of Bottles on their. I do see some 60's & 70's Small Brown & Blue Medicine Bottles that are going for $5 & Up + $7 shipping on Ebay. Does that mean that they are worth $5 or $12? Thanks Everybody! Happy Hunting:D

With all those otherwise worthless bottles available, why don't you build yourself a garden wall . . . or even a garden shelter.

There's no point to putting bottles of that type on Ebay because even if the bottle only costs a dollar it'll cost $5-20 to ship it so no one will buy it. There will be people selling bottles like that on Ebay for all sorts of unreasonable prices but those are just asking prices, and asking prices mean nothing. It's the prices that they actually sold for that mean something, although those can still be unreasonably high sometimes, for various reasons. Bottles that are worth less than the cost of shipping only sell at flea markets and garage sales.
