There is somewhere between little and no difference between any brand of bleach. All bleach is basically a solution of a few percent of sodium hypochlorite in water. There my be a bit of sodium hydroxide, but not much. Then there will be any one of a handful of additives that are included to improve the scent. Check the label of the product, and pull up a Material Safety Data Sheet on anything you don't know about but wish to investigate. Everything is there, and if you need help interpreting it, WikiAnswers may be able to help with that.

What is the value of a 1932 Clorox bottle?
First it must have "clorox" somewhere on the bottle. Many people call any brand of bleach or bleach looking bottle "clorox". Clorox is a brand of bleach just as is Purex, Roman, Javex, etc. Secondly, if the bottle has a rubber stopper that has clorox on it or a screw type lid that says clorox that doesn't make it a clorox bottle. The glass company that made the clorox bottles made bottles for other companies which the clorox stopper/lid may also fit. Thirdly, I assume that your bottle is clear like window glass. I would say 99% of clorox bottles are amber. I have 3 clear clorox bottles. A quart that was given to me. A quart that I paid $20, and a half-gallon that I paid $65. All are the screw top variety.
