Hi! I have these bottles (Some are from different locations) and I can't seem to date them.
#1 (7.6 in tall) says "The W.H Cawley Co., Regis Tered, Dover NJ". It has a monogram of DBW I believe.The back of the bottle says "This Bottle, Not To, Be Sold" and on the bottom it says K. Hutter New York . On the bottom center I believe there is a "B, 253"? Or the 3 could be a symbol, hard to tell. I know the K. Hutter stands for Karl Hutter who dies in 1913. I cannot seem to find any blob tip bottles like this that have the symbol on the front. Guessing 1893-1900?

#2 (6.5 in Tall)Has no markings except on the bottom it has a "3364".

#3 (4.8 in Tall) Has no marking on the sides but has a "B 31" on the bottom".

# 4 (3.5in tall) Has a dot on the neck on opposite sides (could be just a defect). No other markings. On the bottom it almost looks like there was an "L" or "F" (You can barely see in the picture).

#5 (2.75in tall) I think it may have been an ink Jar. On the bottom it says "Carter's 7 1/2 Made in U.S.A.) I know Carter's started selling in around 1862 so my guess was between 1880-1902?

Any help would be great! I've done my research but these seem to have stumped me and I want to get a decently accurate date.

Thanks!

I have the same ink bottle....I believe it was dated as 1890s-to early 1900s. Hope that helps a little.
 

I'd say they collectively fit within an 1885-1900 date range. Nice little collection, keep 'em coming!
