Okay, so I found out that the amber one is a Kv-1 because of another post, but does anyone know the value of it with the label? I am also very curious about the cobalt one.

Well Johnathon the cobalt one has a transfer bead under the cap, so if you take the cap off - I am sure you will see two vertical seams on the glass. This will tell you that the bottle was made on an ABM - Automatic Bottle Machine. The transfer bead held the parison hanging in the mold until the blowhead covered the finish and blew the glass out in the final mold, that was closed around the bottom plate.
These are really only good for recycling as far as value.
The other one might have some value. I see where you had seen the thread about them. That one might be a $ 30 or 40 - bottle.

The KV-1s are common enough that the label doesn't increase the value much. The other I am unfamiliar with. I cant find it in any of my books. It has an English design, but has an American label. Could be re-purposed, but there are several US bottles with English designs documented. I will have to forward this off to the others to see if anyone has seen this before.

Forgot to ask, any embossing on the base of the cobalt bottle?
