More unexpected discoveries for members - 7/1/2008 11:03:58 AM    arthur   Posts: 495 Joined: 5/15/2008 From: new river valley VA/WVA border Status: offline  Over the last couple of summers I have had many suprises while diving for bottles.  I have found many jugs not just glass but like the one pictured.  Some of these are very old it is rare to find any that aren't broken but occasional I do we have 11 of these in different sizes. If anyone has any ideas abut this jug/jugs let me know.   I hope everyone enjoys the pics.  Arthur Attachment (1) Post #: 1
