Just pulled up an 1854 Ginger beer the other day. - 8/8/2007 3:18:15 PM    adshepard   Posts: 214 Joined: 8/11/2004 Status: online I'm backing diving for bottles in Eastport, Maine and just pulled a ginger bottle dated 1854 out of the mud and gravel.  It was in the same spot ai found a Dr. Manly Hardy's Jaundice Bitters two years ago so the date makes sense.  Also around the bottle were two broken Beard's mineral waters with iron pontils. I hate broken bottles but they do help in finding good search spots. More searching to go over the next few weeks then I'll post some photos. Alan Post #: 1
