So I found these going through my gpops garage. Any idea what they are or the values?? The mason jar on the bottom with the lid has 1858 on it but I didn't check the others. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1420588074.034960.jpg

There are a milk and a blob top I would check for embossing, the Avon bottles are interesting and sometimes collectible but I don't know much about them, and maybe look through the insulators, but I can't see any outstanding ones. Just my thoughts.

You could line up the insulators three at a time against a bright background (in a window, for example) for a good, clear image. With the images here, post all the embossing on each as in:
1. "patented march 23, 1887" (on skirt)
2. "27" (on shoulder)
3. "R" (on crown)

Someone here may recognize a collectible insulator among the boxful.

Bottled in Philly. Looks like it's been around since 1883.

Thank you! I look to see if there's embossing on any of the others and post more picks as well as the insulators. Avon bottles are collectible but I'm not really interested in those
