ALRIGHT!!!!!...good job!

I can tell ya right off the bat that insulator is very collectable,and the market for those is boomin right now...."just a little hint"......especialy for rare colors like green,check/search for the "ICON" website for info on insulators......
I see 2 bromos "large and small",pretty common but cool to find!
,cobolt screw top ink,
the bottle all the way to the left looks to be sewing machine oil?

The crown jar,does it have milk on it some where on the embossing?....

but some very very good finds,id check into the insulator though ASAP!

Thanks for the replies.
WhiteLighting: I hear ya about the insulator thing. I must confess though, I'm primarily an insulator collector. Even though it's a nice color this is a pretty common insulator and doesn't sell for much. It has a bit of damage too, so that takes the value down also.

The far left bottle is a sewing machine oil bottle made by Singer.
The crown sealer I believe just has the common embossing you see on most Crowns with the embossed picture of the crown. I'll have to check if it says Milk anywhere on it though. I'll have a look when I get home tonight.

nice haul there. looks like quite a few keepers. i like the lemon cordial bottle. i haven't heard of that before. was it a soda or some other beverage or a medicine? looks nice. any chance of a close up picture of it?

it's a nice bottle for sure. the name throws me though. it looks like a soda bottle. like one of the deco type that i like. but with cordial in the name in has me thinking alcoholic beverage. just curious of the story behind the name.
