I had bottles similar to those type of "necks". The ones I had were embossed, and my research told me they were circa 1880 to 1900. The blue item looks like part of a plate, and I'm sure that is "Blue Willow". Bottles are always nice.............Rich

cool bottles. I really don't know much about bottles, but as far as dates... yea, what Rich said

 

[sandchip]

All mighty common but hey, any old find makes a good day! Thanks for sharing 'em.

Looks like they are all pre ABM (automatic bottle machine) and date roughly to 1900-1915. Like Sandchip said, pretty common to bottle collectors. The marble has more collector value than the bottles. HH

The castoria looks ABM and would likely be from the late 1910s or 1920s. The small druggist with graduations also looks ABM and from the '20s. The BIM Caldwell's is likely earlier 1910s, and the large druggist looks BIM and from the TOC-1910s. The Caldwell's is the best of the bottles, but still quite common. Thanks for sharing!

I have every one of those bottles in my collection, we dug them all from railroad ghost towns. The oldest is your Castoria. Depending on the seems and neck/lip connections it's hard to perfectly date them. But it's safe to say 1890/1915-20 on all. Cool finds, the marble is the gem though.

You aught to PM Muckybottles. Muck knows quite a bit if you're looking for additional information. Nice finds-old bottles are cool because they're so delicate.

Nice saves!

On the Caldwells, does the seam go to the lip? Or does it stop right before it?
