Bottles with screw top lids are the most modern of all bottles. As the bottle making process was refined and machine bottles became more perfected, better bottle closing devices were developed. The screw cap came out in 1920 and was very slow to be adopted. Food and medicine bottles being the first to use. Even still today wine, beer and sodas come without screw caps. Liquor and perfumes makers didn't really take to the screw cap until after WW II. Most of the better wines and perfumes still use cork base closing devices.
The little wide mouth, clear glass jar that you have is a old "Kraft" cheese jar. One of the Kraft food companies products was cheese spreads and cottage cheese. Both came in those type of jars, these had a wax paper lid. This lid had all of the products advertising and the glass jar became a drinking glass utilized in many american homes. Latter on in the 40's & 50's they started decorating them artistic themes, realizing people wanted the drinking glasses as much as their cheeses. I have some of these painted Kraft cheese "drinking glasses" in my collection. The painted ones go for $5 to $20 no problem. Later 50's and into the 70's Welch's jelly came out with their famous cartoon Jelly Drinking Glasses also very collectible and have good value (really not that long ago).
The three tall bottle in middle back are crown cap soda bottles. The green, because of it being green glass and if it is a soda bottle would be of value. That bottle has embossing on it, but I can't read it from the one picture. The tall clear glass bottle has some kind of design on it. The B-1 Sparkling water, a club soda and because it has a fairly decent painted label, gives it value. The fruit jar for sure a keeper and maybe the brown glass (beer ?) bottle bottom right. If it is a beer bottle, it should have had a label. Bottles with missing paper labels have very low values and at best $1 bottles.
From what I'm seeing most of these bottles were made after 1940, would need to see the bottoms to better date them. They are all ABM's (Auto Blown Machines) bottles. Proper cleaning and removing that milky white glaze if possible could make the "lot" able to be sold to a collector that is just starting. I could be wrong you might have $20 for everything at best, unless I'm missing a "sleeper".
