Top 4 bottles, .25 -1.00 an piece. The Lowell Mass bottle, Is there any other embossed lettering on it? Druggist,Pharm. and Chemist bottles are so numerous and quite regional..so it would extremely tough to put a price tag on it.

Pharmacy bottles are very regional, maybe a collector who collects Pharm. bottles from the specific region paid that amount, me personally, I really don't gauge a value based on fleabay...

Western pharmacy bottles can be very valuable, $50 for the Madsen's doesn't surprise me...

The restaurants even by NYC water, just to make the dough..

Don't even get me started about Chicago's cake with mozzarella and sauce

Chicago "pizza" is good but shouldn't be compared to NY, they're pretty different foods.
