They're too blurry, and you gave no information on them.
Also, as of late it seems threads will go completely dead when they would have, three months ago, become pretty alive. Try some close-ups (In focus,) descriptions, and a spot of history.

What is written on the soda and Hutchinson? The stoneware on the far right is a master ink. The bottle on it's side is a common sauce bottle. Great finds.

Hi George , I am in Sydney. Great stuff you found. Jerome B. Baker opened a fresh water brewery at 4 Pleasant St. Halifax in 1851. His son Burdette R Baker joined the firm in 1866 and took over the business some 4 years later in 1870. At about the same time the bottling company plant address changed to 26 Pleasant St Halifax. Then in 1879 James Roue bought him out. My guess is that bottle was made somewhere in the U.S.A. If you decide to sell that bottle I'd be interested.

Could we see a close-up of that stoneware jar on the left? Looks interesting. The hutch too.
