Hi Junkortreasure,

I'll take a stab at these. I believe the 3 larger ones in the back may be ammonia or vinegar bottles, the west end bottles appear to be a beer, i see an ink, maybe a shoe blackening, and possibly a couple little medicines or perfume's. For the most part appear to be 1930's or 40's to me, although the ink and Atwoods may be older. Check your mold lines on each bottle to see if they come up over the top of the lip. If they stop below the lip, most likely turn of the century. Are you digging a dump? If so, i'd go a few feet deeper and see what you might find.

The snows no fun to dig in, but hey, at least there isnt any deer flies and mosquito's eating you alive all day! LOL

Hope this help you a little anyway,
Richie[:)]
