Status: online 		NO COTTON MOUTHS NO PROBLEMS! POISON SNAKES HAVE TRIANGULAR HEADS LIKE THE SNAKE HEAD YOU SHOW ON THE SECOND ROW.. Is the cobalt bottle in the 2nd set of pictures a hutch? It is near the end facing the screen. As for snakes my pop used to grab them by the tail and sling them round and round and do like a whip and pop their head off!  IT WAS UNREAL TO WATCH! SO MUCH FOR SNAKE TALK! WISH I HAD SOMETHING TO TRADE YOU FOR THE "VICTORY MILK" AS POP FOUGHT IN WW2.

Status: offline 		last year we dug in a spot in the woods and happened on a nest of baby copperheads. In tribute to steve irvin, I just picked them up with a shovel and moved them. We haven't been back in a year so I don't know if they moved on. I found some interesting conetops there and a LOT of milks , so we were going to give it a shot. There is a patch of water behind a ladies house I know and I sense there's bottles in the silt. perfect place for a water moccasin, not that I've seen one.She said we can dig anytime as long as we bring her rice. One ranger once told me copperheads are no problem, they are shy, but water moccasins are nasty and territorial. I've been dying to try that patch of water and even bought some waders . I just need someone to keep and eye out with me. If we don't find anything in those 2 spots, we have a backup sure thing plan. I'll have dave call you to see if you can make it.

The cup and saucer and the plates look like hotel or restaurant china. Most of the time they have dates codes on the bottom and you can tell the month and year they were made.


No dates on the china (considering how many we dug, I think I would have noticed, but I checked anyway and no date)
Here are my (two) broken banks. For some reason I thought one was smaller than the other - maybe I have three?

Status: offline 		Those plates say Lamberton China Scamell Made in America, but I still see no date mark... but there were a couple other styles of plates - I just looked at those and they are Black Night.
One says Registered U.S.A. Sele Bavaria - this one has 3084 impressed in the bottom.
The other says Registered U.S.A. Germany - this one has 215 impressed in the bottom.

So what does it mean?!!!

Thanks!
Kate

Status: offline 		I can't post pictures right now. Have plans today, but in reference to this china, one thing interesting is that the Lambert pieces and the Black Night with Bavaria on the back are the same design, but the ink/color is noticably different and the Black Night Bavaria piece is thinner than the Lambert or the Black Night Germany piece. The most prolific in the dump was the Lambert style.

Status: offline 		doodle, what a day! I needed a day like today. Dave and I dug 6 boxes worth of stuff. 15 milks from at least 8 diff dairies. maybe 20 conetop beers and a dozen flat tops from the 30's. sodas, beers, marbles, buttons, spoons, a candy dispenser, some china. I'm exhausted. I hope to post pictures in the next day or 2. tomorrow we divy up the loot.

Status: offline 		sunday i was up in easton, didn't do too well. I'll try and clean up some stuff and post better pictures. I gave dave all the beer cans. He cleaned  one off saturday night and it turned out pretty well. Bock beer with the goat on it and instructions on how to open. I think he was going to try to clean the conetops last night. I hope they clean well since they are NICE. a bunch more just crumbled in our hands but a lot survived.

Glad you had a good day on Saturday!

Status: offline 		thanks kate, I'm sure he'll come with something. Thanks for the pinball info. My daughter is 13 and still likes to hang around with the old man. I try and make it fun, autograph shows and wrestling events. she even likes a little bottle digging and metal detecting.

Status: offline 		Hi Jesster.

I just googled Larry Storch to see where I knew him from and it's more like, where don't I know him from. I don't think he was ever on "I Love Lucy"! Wow - some impressive career!

You daughter is beautiful. Keep her close - the teen hormones will be kicking in shortly. My daughter is 17 and she is finally calming down.

Kate

Status: offline 		I  think the Cotton Mouth Water Moccasin snakes are more common in the southern states around Georgia, Florida, ect, ect,, not sure they go that far north. They are black or dark in color. Easily get confused with milk Snakes & others. LEON.

Status: offline 		I hope you're right leon. no sign of snakes so we'll keep hitting this spot. plus its getting cooler out and that should slow them down. the other place i wanted to try is very swampy. As i was trying to walk through with the waders, i saw and heard frogs jumping around, so its a perfect location for a moccasin. maybe I'm paranoid.
