    I found these bottles near construction site. I also have an old shoe polish bottle with sponge and polish in it.

      are they of any value?

      I found a bottle that looks very similar to the blue bottle in your collection. It has raised lettering that says bromo seltzer emerson drug co. Baltimore ,MD. It's 2.5 " tall. I am just curious if you would have any info on it. If so could you send it to me. thanks.

      Sure they have value. Even .25 cents IS value. You have asked the wrong question as do many new collectors. You should be asking if any of your bottles has "great intrinsic value". The answer would be. Detailed photo's would better tell you that. It is just about impossible to say if we don't see the entire bottle, don't see the bottom, are not told if there are any marks by the maker etc.

      Most of your bottles look common, However I say most because you MAY have one in there that is intrinsically better than the others. I say may again, because of the photo's.

      And yes, I am being vague on purpose. You have been vague with your photo on purpose.
