Default bottle id and value round 4

These last two pics are of one of two nearly identical bottles I found while deer hunting in southern MD. One major difference between the two bottles is the location of the neck. The bottle not pictured has the neck off centered to one side (to facilitate pouring?). I was told that they were old motor oil bottles. Any value to these? Thanks Pappy.

wanted to add that these bottles are about 10 -12 inches or so high and the bottom has a mark that looks like a capital H over and anchor.

I'm not going to be of much help at all, but the mark you describe is from Anchor Hocking. That glass company began in 1905 but didn't become Anchor-Hocking until 1937 with the merger of two different glass companies. The marking identifies your bottles as being after the merger.

Not very helpful, but it might give you a place to start on your research.
