When it comes to collectibles like this, how much you get for them all depends on how much a collector is willing to pay.

So very true! You almost never get the price that might be quoted in a book as far as the possible value.
It's also very true that when a part is missing, such as a lid from a collectible bottle, then it will be worth less.
When I have trouble finding information about something on a web search on Google for a collectible, I then try an image search based upon the information that is given. Frequently, I will find an item that is close to what has been described.
Examples:
antique liquor bottle 1 pint - Google Image Search antique liquor bottle half pint - Google Image Search antique liquor bottle 1 pint value - Google Image Search antique liquor bottle half pint value - Google Image Search
Suggestion: Please clean these items up the best that you can using soap, water and Lime Away if needed, and show them to an antique dealer. Seeing them "in person" is the best way to determine a possible monetary value. There could be chips or imperfections in the manufacture of them that can play a big role as far as their possible monetary value.
If you are trying to sell them, you could try eBay or other sites on the Internet to sell them. It is likely that someone would buy them. I know a person who made his entire living for awhile by buying costume jewelry for pennies at garage sales and then selling them to people around the world for much more than he paid for them.
