Hi Junkortreasure,
It looks like the majority of your finds are medicine and food bottles. Do any have embossing on them to help us out? The almost straight-sided bottle on the top right in the 1st picture looks like a capers bottle-there was quite a lengthy discussion on them earlier on this forum.(Try the search feature)That cobalt blue bottle appears to be a triangular-shaped,ribbed POISON,so be very carefull with the liquid inside[] (Poisons were often unusually shaped and heavily embossed with ribs,hobnails etc. so they could be distinquished in the dark/by illiterate folks from other bottles.)

Good day's digging!(Wish I could get the time[&o]!)

Thanks for the info, most of the bottles do not have any embossing , except for some numbers on the bottom, some dont even have that, one soays lysol and another one says three in one but thats about it. thanks again

j or t , in your first picture , the clear bottle in front of the big bottle on the left in the rear appears to be a pharmicists perscrition bottle , check for a roman numeral (such as XII , XVI , etc.) followed by the letter "o" with a strange looking squiggly line type symbol next to it (actually this is the letter "z") , which means oz. (ounces) , embossed on the bottle . As Big Kitty said , the blue one is a poison , which is worth something , although I don't know how much . Can you send a good pic of the brown bottle , on the right , in your first pic ? I'd like to get a good look at it .
