River bank digging, not bad day 8) - 8/27/2008 4:42:18 PM    bikegoon Posts: 671 Joined: 10/2/2006 From: Lebanon, Ohio Status: offline Found a few sweeties today. 3 in 1 oil, common, but never even saw one before. Nice aqua cone ink. and A very nice Re Umberto brand pure olive oil.......the thing is that I have never seen one this old..... And a sauce bottle of some kind, just awesome to look at....The etching is handdone, and you tell the stone wheel was used on that one to create the engravings..any thoughts on this one guys? And yet another hatchet head. Ok...on to the good stuff 8) Here is the "sauce"? on the left and the Re unberto on the right any ideas on this thing guys? it is pretty! It looks like something was supposed to be on the bottom half of this piece, but there is those grind marks on it.... one more... ok on the umberto....seams stops about 1.5 inches from the top, lots o crudeness _____________________________ A little of everything at http://www.bottlecache.com Post #: 1
