I have recently opened a small vintage/antique shop and have had these bottles for years in a box. I have googled, Ebayed, Etsy'd and searched Pinterest for both of them so I can price them. I was expecting to find both pretty quick but no luck...and countless bottle pages too! Only good thing is i found this site and am hoping someone who might see this can help!
The first is a wine bottle but silly me deleted the picture but will post it tomorrow. Is it a hobnail style?

And the last picture has a picture of the glass marker and can't find that anywhere either...

Thank you in advance.

The mark on the base is Glass Container Corp. 1934-ca. 1968. ....plus a couple articles regarding the product.

Looks like there was legal action involving the product.

Thank you so much! It amazes me how everything had to be secured with a patent or else! You are very kind to have spent that much time to research!

Now, if i could only find out if it is worth anything! It still has the gold foil on the neck too!

Cheers!

Your welcome!....It would have more collectability if all the labels were intact. It is a neat bottle and product but it may have little value, the best is to search ebay to see what similar bottles have sold for, check sold listings.

Oh thank you for your help. Unfortunately, this is the only article I did find which didn't help much. I have googled and only found one "pisco" and it's a restaurant in San Francisco and I follow them on Instagram.
