Bottles with the street address embossed like your soda on the left in the pic, are my favorite type of bottle to collect. I recall finding a W.B. Pixley/S.F. pharmacy bottle at the old De Anza College flea market in Kooper-Teen-Oh, Calif. back in the day. The woman wanted 10¢ for it (not kidding) as it has a small 1/4 inch flash in the backside. I've never seen another example but that doesn't mean it is rare, however I would never part with it. When these bottles we collect were made and used, money was money! Made from silver, gold, copper or redeemable in same. And yes I know the two-cent pieces and the later three-cent pieces were made from nickel in the 1870s. But generally money had real value back then.
