A really interesting mix of bottles there.
Your C.S. Burdsal reminded me of one I bought at an auction here in the UK a couple of years ago.
I did a little bit of research on it and included it in a post I put up on a UK forum.
There is a really interesting back story to Caleb S. Burdsal but instead of swamping you thread with it I'll put it up as a separate post.
