Thanks for the help. I know what you mean about the Boston one being very blurry you can't make out the letters. I tried imaging software to bring out the letters without any meaningful success. I guess that one just waits until I find another similar one.

The Brooklyn, NY dated from Jergens-Woodbury Co., was quite a famous brand in its day.
