What kind of bottles are these? Are they rare? Are they worth anything? Any other information would be greatly appreciated!
The two bottles have the same design, but differ in shape, bottom, and lip.

The design reads:
Leigh & Co.
Trade (star/flower design with the word "GLOBE" inside) Mark
Registered
Salford

The large bottle has a deeply inverted bottom.

See picture below. Thanks a bunch!

Hi and welcome awysocki.
They are beer or ale bottles from England, probably not rare but I don't really know, good looking bottles anyhow [;)] .
That same company used amber Codd's and torpedos too I believe.

Hi Awysocki,

There will be a Tripod pop-up but that should be it.[&:]

Hope this helps,
