Soda bottle ID help

[GBmike]

Can't find these three soda bottles on the internet. The NuGrape bottle is from 1920. The other two have no date. Wondering the history and value of these things. Any help is appreciated. The aqua is a NuGrape patented 1920, the amber bottle is a "Whiz" (no kidding on the name [] ) and the green is a "Vesdry" Help.....!
Thanks in advance

Vess soda was put out by the makers of Whistle in the late 20s and 30s. Some of the bottles have the city they were from embossed on the base. I have seen a few of them from Portland, Maine.
