Century Home find

I bought property about 1.5 years ago that was built in 1850 in Southern New Brunswick. I finally cleared a path out back to get to the river and today my son and I went for a stroll back there and found this along the river edge in the water.

I think from google it’s from the 1950’s, but I’m not 100% sure.

Just seeing if anyone has any information to identify and date it.

Farmhouse Finds

Can anyone help me out identifying the age/use of the 3 similar bottles? The smaller one I’m pretty sure is from the 1930’s and used to hold bleach but I can definitely be wrong and would love to be corrected. Recently moved into a 1850’s farmhouse in Wisconsin and found these tuck in a corner in the rafters of the smokehouse

Some old dispensary bottles

I have a few old SC dispensary bottles that I would like to sell. They belonged to my late husband and just sit in the back of a cabinet. Where is the best place to do so and how should I price them? One is broken. I don’t know if broken ones are still desirable.

Mercury scrap?

I was given this old earthenware jug containing 10 pounds of mercury. It’s neat and all but I need cash more than I need the risk of spilling this thing and turning my new house into an uninhabitable superfund site as fun as that sounds. I heard the scrap price on this stuff is pretty decent. Anyone know what it’s potentially worth and what kind of organization would be buying this sorta thing? I’m in the New Orleans area. I found this picture online but the one I have is identical i just didn’t want to take it out of it’s vacuum seal bag its currently contained in
