I WAS EXCITED , USUALLY FIND ONE OR TWO IN A PIT.  THIS DIG WAS ABOUT A MONTH AGO.  WISH EVERY DIG WAS LIKE THIS ONE.  14 LOCAL PENSACOLA HUTCHES ALL DIFFERENT VARIATION OF THE SAME MANUFACTURER, SOME PERFECT CONDITION SOME WITH MINOR DAMAGE.  ALSO 5 STRAIGHT SIDE COKES.  THERE WAS ABOUT 7-10 BUSTED HUTCHES IN THE HOLE ALL WERE ONES I DIDN'T HAVE IN MY COLLECTION, OH WELL. 

THE NEXT POST WILL SHOW THEM CLEANED UP..

THIS WAS A GOOD WITH PERMISSION DIG, SOME FOOL CAME ON THE SITE WHEN I WASN'T THERE AND PROBED HOLES ,THAT I HAD ALREADY DUG AND FILLED PROPERLY, AND REDUG THEM AND LEFT THE HOLE UNFILLED. THESE ARE THE DIGGERS THAT ARE DESTROYING OUR PASTTIME, MAKES ME SICK.

I GREW UP DIGGING IN NEW ORLEANS, AND BOTTLES TYPICALLY DON'T COME OUT THE GROUND LOOKING SO PRETTY.  HERE IN PENSACOLA THE SAND PRESERVES THE GLASS BEAUTIFULLY, ALMOST LIKE THE DAY THEY WERE MADE, AND THE STOPPERS ARE USUALLY STILL INTACT WITH SOME RUST, I COULD GET USED TO THIS.  ALL 14 HUTCHES HAD STOPPERS STILL IN THEM, IN NEW ORLEANS I MIGHT HAVE FOUND ONE BLOBTOP WITH THE METAL CLOSURE ON IT ON ALL MY DIGS.  I STILL LOVE NEW ORLEANS MY HOME SWEET HOME, AND WISH I COULD GET A NICE DIG SPOT THERE, I WOULD TAKE THE TRIP.

In the 70s I went to see my cousin in New Orleans.He took me to see a man [plummer I think...any way he crawed under houses and found lots of bottles.]The man had a box full of nothing but new Orlean hutches!He wanted a buck a piece and even back then that was a good price...I picked out all the different ones in nice condition.Back then I collected only patent meds. and traded them for meds.Ah it was a wonderful thing!!JAMIE

The design was first produced in Savannah and they named the design after the island just across from River St.  Hutchinson's Island.




Ok, Ok, but it makes a believable story, now doesn't it?

Status: offline 		Sweet finds. I collect and love finding hutches. One of the advantages of digging is that you can get in a hole like that (or the one slick Rick found with all those cobalt squats) where you get bunches of the things. The best I have ever done on one tank of air was 7 hutches. I think I found 6 more on my next tank that day, so, it was a good day, but its got to be great fun to keep unearthing them one after another.

And BTW - keep the stoppers from the broken ones. First off, people want them and secondly, if they are in good shape they can be polished into sparkling accents for your collection. Check out this link on the forum to see what I mean . . .

Those ss Coca Colas look like they could be good ones.

I'd really really like to see the SS Cokes you found, and I'm sure others would too!

Status: offline 		THANKS ALL FOR LOOKING,   I WILL BE DOING SOME MORE DIGGING SOON AND I'LL POST ANY FINDS.  IN A SMALL LOT, I ENDED UP DIGGING ABOUT TWO HUNDRED BOTTLES, 17 PENSACOLA HUTCHES, 7-8 STRAIGHT SIDED COKES, MANY SLICKER WHISKEYS, SOME 1920'S LOCAL SODA BOTTLES. THINK MAYBE THERE WAS A LITTLE GENERAL STORE ON THAT LOT A HUNDRED YEARS AGO, BECAUSE USUALLY I DON'T FIND THAT MANY TRASH PITS ON ONE LOT.  HAD A BLAST, HOPE TO KEEP THE LUCK GOING...  GOOD LUCK TO ALL WHO ARE GETTING IN DIGS BEFORE CHRISTMAS..

THANKS WAHIAWA DIGGER FOR THE LINKS, LOOKS LIKE FUN DIGGING IN HAWAII, THOSE HUTCHES LOOK AWESOME, MAY HAVE TO TRY AND FIND ONE TO TRADE OR BUY FOR MY COLLECTION, SINCE I WON'T BE DIGGING ONE OF THOSE ANY TIME SOON.
