The oldest ones are probably the ones with a top that accepts a cork. Then there are the ones that take a bottle cap. The ones with a screw lid are most likely modern.

Too true Scott. Jim, they're worth a couple or a few bucks each. From one of the photos some appear to be early screw tops and that's interesting to the right collector. Personally embossed and datable bottles are best.
Jim, repost this in the 'bottles' part of the forum. Harry Pristis is the man.
