Finally found A small dump to A old farm that was torn down back in the late 1950's. Took me 9 trips to this place to find the older stuff. 8 trips of ABM"s was starting to get old.The 9th trip I told my wife if I leave the camera home I might find something. Darned if it didn't work!!!!!!

These are the cleanest bottles I ever dug. The dump was next to the river, 4 feet deep & burried in sand. No dirt or ash, just sand.

Hi Rhonda!! long time no talk. Puter troubles the past few months. Finally got it fixed & then bought a new lap top for a backup. I think i'm good to go now. Yeah this dump has been a tough one. Got fox hole dug all over this place. Looks like a mine field. I know there's more dumps here, just have to find it. Yeah I'm finally retired. April 30th was my last day of work. Sure don't miss it.

Cleaned bottles. I'm still amazed at how nice these bottles cleaned up. Didn't even have to soak these. Just washed the sand off with the garden hose & then just cleaned them with a brillo pad.

Top of the whiskey. Shaped different than the standard whiskeys. Also has an applied mouth. I like it.
