Thanks again madman! Seems a lot of the bottles I'm finding are household product. I have 3 cute little Esquire Scuff Kote bottles. One still has the applicator in it. I really enjoy finding such small bottles. Do you have any idea why there are so many karo bottles, log cabin bottles and heinz ketchup bottles? Was it cheap or what? Going digging tomorrow...very excited. Farmgal.

I remember bug sprays from the late 50s - early 60s. I REMEMBER THE ALL METAL ONES , "BLACK FLAG" specially. Best of my memory[which ain't too  good] the fly basically had to be drowned in some of the stuff! Wonder people didn't fall out from all the sprayed chemicals! FLY SWATTERS WERE REALLY BETTER CAUSE OF THE CHEMICALS AND ALL FLYS WEREN'T GONNA BE KILLED ANY WAY!
