Thank you for helping to identify them. I appreciate the clarification on the pontil marks.... this Newbie finds them very confusing [:-]... but that website link is helpful [:D]
Can anyone tell me what these 2 bottles were for and their worth?
The big one is Aqua and has OKO embossed on the front.
Mold seam stops at the neck and bottom has a large pontil
mark with the numbers 169, I think.
Small bottle is Clear glass and has Wm. R. Warner & Co. Philadelphia...
I got all these bottles (plus more plain ones) for $5 yesterday at a garage sale. I imagine that they are worth that much, but I'll let you guys (the experts) tell me if they are. I'm new to the bottle world but for $5 I couldn't pass 'em up.

Thank you Chris & Mike for your help.
I never would have guessed that the Lozak Labs bottle is actually a milk.... that explains the "wash & return" on the bottom [:D]
Are any of thes bottles listed in the Baltimore Bottle Book? If so, when do they date to and what is their value, etc? I do realize that condition plays a part in the value but I am curious as to whether they are listed in the Balt. book. The large one is a LOZAK LABORATORIES from Baltimore...
You "bottle guys" are the BEST !!! Thanks so much for your help and I will contact the Baltimore bottle people for further info. Any questions on the many other bottles I have will definitely go thru y'all first... you can count on that [:D][:D][:D]
Thanks for the info Meech. Is the Baltimore Bottle Book available for sale somewhere? Maybe I should get a copy because I have a few more Balt bottles in this lot. Also, since this bottle is listed as "uncommon" how do you begin to figure out it's worth? My friend wants me to sell this and...
This small bottle came with a bunch that were dug by a friends uncle back in the 60's. This one is Aqua, 3" High, looks like the seam stops before lip, and it says "Walker & Co. Perfumers - Baltimore". Has a little scratch right on the shoulder - not a crack, I examined it under a magnifying...
I would like to know if any of you know the value on this bottle. It was dug up back in the 60's so I know it's an original and not a repro. Has the 12/25/1923 Pat date on it. The bottom is embossed with "HAVRE DE GRACE - MD" which is an old waterfront town in Maryland not far from where this...
Thanks "Bottle Guys" for the info on this one. It's a dug bottle from a town in Pennsylvania called Wakefield, which is in southern Lancaster County PA.
Is anyone familiar with this bottle? Clear glass and the mold seam stops where the shoulder meets the neck. Embossed with "MILLER's" on the front. No other markings anywhere on this bottle. Thank you. [:)]

This bottle is 4" H x 3/4" W and it looks clear but when you hold it up to the light it has a little bit of an aqua color so I'm not sure. The seam stops at the shoulder. And the only marking looks like a M over top of an N in a circle. The bottom has an 8 on it.
Was wondering if any of...
