Not sure where you got the dates you have listed but your bottles date from 1880-1900, no where near the 1700's and in total they are worth about $100 on a good day. Best of luck with them......Jim
His response to me....
all the bottles posted are priced from the Kovels Bottle Books they are from the late 1700's to the late 1800's and they range in price from $295-$1,100 i am not sure when you are getting your $100 for all???
Hopefully he comes and checks out the forum so he can better understand what he has and their true age and value...
I certainly can't argue with that. Always has been inaccurate and always, apparently, will be. So of their prices simply don't make any sense. Although how anyone can say that a blob soda from 1890 is 1790-1820 is beyond me as well.

Kovel's is the LAST guide that anyone should consider. Asking a stranger on the street would be a better option.
Haha, I'm glad he doesn't have any bottles I want... That's just funny... I highly doubt those bottles are even listed in a price book, so this guy is just stupid!
I wonder if he would buy all my masons improved red book # 1725's ( only have a dozen or so with the lids) I'd give him a deal of 50 bucks apiece so he could make 6-700 + each (I would still feel guilty a little)[][][][][][][]
