Thanx Julie. Kanudiggit/Vabottles: Would love to dig witchu guys, but I'm having trouble finding time to make a Suffolk run. Next week I'll be heading up to Maine for couple weeks so not looking likely for awhile. I have found two new dumps that you guys are welcome help me dig during last week: one 1890ish in Prince Edward Co., the other 1910ish in Chesterfield Co. Not as old as I would like - but both are virgin dumps. The "newer" dump actually is loaded with some surprisingly good bottles: White House/other embossed vinegar cruets, art decos, masons, milks. The other day while poking around at this dump I found the first mustard jar that I have ever kept: a little deep aqua ground top jar embossed "New England Maple Syrup Co., Boston, TreeTop Brand Mustard." After finding/pitching 8,376 French's jars it was cool finding an actual keeper mustard. Probably a common jar up north but I have never seen before in Dixie. Lets try to find some older stuff in Suffolk next month: say mid-August? I will be digging the local dump on sunday - but think you guys are tried of TOC dumps by now, if not drop me an e-mail. Now win that flask!
