I have a few bottles. I don't know what they are or if any are valuable.

Late 20's into the 30's . I see a ketchup bottle and a clorox bottle. This was when screw caps were just getting started. I dig many of these with 1920'2 corkers type bottles.
They have a very knowledgeable Bottle and glass section here also.

You have a few nice bottles. That coke bottle made in Indianapolis looks to be from the 40's or 50's. Even though it doesn't hold much value, it's still a nice piece.
The clear bottle with numbering on the side looks like it's made by Owens glass Co. Illinois, and is probably around 1940's. The Purex one is really nice, how it has the handle only attached to the neck, definitely a unique looking bottle. On average, they're probably worth a few bucks a piece, as there aren't any very rare bottles, but still they are nice.

Congrats on the finds! Bottles are truly a niche market. I tried selling some nice old Bitters at a garage sale. One was valued at over $500, I dug it locally. I couldn't give it away (not that I would), but of the hundreds shoppers, not even a $1 Bitters sold, (or any of my bottles for that matter). Bottles were big back in the 80's, somewhat dead today.

Yes Purex is chlorine bleach. I recall purex and other bottles like that at back in the late 50's through the mid 60's, when they had wringer washers and few color TV's.

I broke the Coke bottle a couple months ago and am determined to find another. I also found a Gatorade bottle.

The Purex bottle July 1958, the Heinz bottle 1962, the KC bottle 1916.
