New and inexperienced.

New to site and trying to figure out how to post so please bear with me. I have some bottles I need to see if they are worth anything to any one. Here are a few pics if anyone can help identify or value them or are interested in acquiring. These three have no identifying marks that I can see. 2nd photo have " Design Pat'd Mar 3, 25 and 596" on bottom.

I have an A. Kennedy Houston soda bottle found at Buffalo Bayou behind the old Spaghetti Warehouse a few years back. According to a printed article, this company's bottle has never been seen. It has a broken top but the piece is with it. Anyone know of someone with an interest in it?

It is a real shame that Kennedy bottle is broken, but congrats on finding a rare one.
What is that list you have behind the bottle? Are copies available?

I might have an interest...I have a friend that would like it for sure. I do have an example and since Bob and Alice's book was written in 1973 several examples have surfaced. I'll PM you.

Thank you. The list is from a copy of "The Early Houston Sodas," it isn't credited to anyone on my copy.

Someone will want that - it’s an easy repair of you have the broken piece

The book is "The Early Houston Sodas", written by Bob and Alice Lane in 1973. It has some great information on the history of the various bottlers in Houston but is far out of date with respect to the discoveries since the book was written; many bottles have been found since it was written.

Thank you, Robby. I also found a Star Bottling Works bottle, Union bottles and several others.
