New dump, almost - 9/5/2006 9:01:38 PM    JGUIS   Posts: 1712 Joined: 3/18/2006 From: New Lexington, OH Status: offline I found a dump today while scouting, I'm hoping it's TOC.  It was pouring rain and getting dark, but I've wanted to check this for quite awhile now.  It was near a place my dad and I used to mushroom hunt, but I remembered seeing trash.  I'll post some pics after supper.  I did no digging here, just looked for something to verify I was in the right area.  I found at least 20 different color, shape, size crocks, jugs, lids all white clay stuff, and all broke.  And a large BIM Simmons Liver Regulator(embossed 3 sides), and Danville Sanitary Dairy J H Campbell & Son Danville PA.  Both were found in a wash downhill from the pottery, both are mint. _____________________________ A pipe gives a wise man time to think, and gives a fool something to stick in his mouth.

Campbell & son Danville, PA  slugplate, and yes she's already turning purple.  I was wrong, it's not mint.  There are 2 teenie tiny scratches on the back.

RE: New dump, almost - 9/6/2006 8:23:02 AM    Bottleman Posts: 863 Joined: 9/3/2004 From: Central Pennsylvania Status: offline Josh, very nice milk bottle. Danville, PA is only about an hour from my house and i often go there to visit other bottle diggers. Next time i am up there i will figure out if it's common or not from thoes guys. Looks like you will be finding some good stuff after you start digging deeper. ~~Tom (in reply to capsoda) Post #: 8

RE: New dump, almost - 9/6/2006 6:11:04 PM    JGUIS   Posts: 1712 Joined: 3/18/2006 From: New Lexington, OH Status: offline I hit every PA milk site on the net, and several other US milk sites, NADA.  I did find reference to the name in a newspaper article, from 1889.  Stopped by on my way home for about 15 minutes, mostly moving debris from the ravine.  Found a apothecary bottle, a Whistle soda, and a King's New Discovery(I hate those Kings, bottoms are too thin) which is the 3rd one I've found and the most whole.  This one only has a small hole in the corner of the base.  Going back tomorrow, landowner said he's gonna ask the neighbors if there's anymore dumps closeby. _____________________________ A pipe gives a wise man time to think, and gives a fool something to stick in his mouth.

RE: New dump, almost (new pics) - 9/7/2006 10:33:38 PM    JGUIS   Posts: 1712 Joined: 3/18/2006 From: New Lexington, OH Status: offline Here's the spot.  The dot on the bottom is where I picked up the Liver Regulator, sticking out of the mud between a rock and a stick.  The upper dot has a fallen tree sticking out of the left side of it.  That's about 10-15' from where it seems to turn into all rocks.  Most of the glass is under the tree about 3' down.  Note the LARGE tree in the upper right hand corner.  I am standing in an intersection of 2 ravines.  I found today that the ravine to the right of the pic has a dump also.
