RE: Your Best Heartbreaker - 2/2/2008 8:14:59 PM    appliedlips Posts: 1711 Joined: 1/30/2005 Status: offline     Thanks Tique.My shard box has alot better stuff than my shelf.Unfortunately privies are alot like dumps in that most of the good,larger bottles are broken.And just like you said earlier in the thread, the good ones turn up all in one spot.I dig plenty of holes with nothing but commons and slicks without a sign of a decent bottle.I would say 80% of the bitters are broken.What sucks is we have very few early sodas here,and they are the type of bottles that survive the toss into the poop. _____________________________ I WOULD LIKE TO BUY OR TRADE FOR YOUR COLORED,AND OR EMBOSSED CATHEDRAL PEPPERSAUCE BOTTLES.I AM ALSO LOOKING FOR EMBOSSED MIDWESTERN ALES IN ANY COLOR.

RE: Your Best Heartbreaker - 2/3/2008 11:09:33 AM    earlyglass   Posts: 366 Joined: 12/21/2004 Status: offline Here is a true heartbreaker... they are shards of a Stoddard "Rushton & Aspinwall / Clorine Toothwash Coumpound", but not dug shards. The bottle was whole, mint, and graced the shelf of one of my bottle buddies. When a bat flew through his "bottle cave", it knocked the Rushton off the shelf! That is a heartbreaker!

It's another to have a good one sitting on the shelf and have it destroyed like that. That's a hard way to go! Chris (in reply to earlyglass) Post #: 146

RE: Your Best Heartbreaker - 2/3/2008 4:57:12 PM    appliedlips Posts: 1711 Joined: 1/30/2005 Status: offline    Bill,that scroll flask is an incredible color.Hopefully you will find a whole one in the same area.I dug 3 privies today and don't even have a nice shard to show.Seen a small piece to an E.Dexter Loveridge's Wahoo Bitters but other than that most of the brokens were even slicks.Next time.   Mike,I take it,you own the shards now?I don't know how your buddy could stand looking at the pile after what happened.I've heard of a one of a kind sided,green pontilled soda from my little podunk Illinois town that got dropped at a show.I don't think I could go on living after seeing such a thing. _____________________________ I WOULD LIKE TO BUY OR TRADE FOR YOUR COLORED,AND OR EMBOSSED CATHEDRAL PEPPERSAUCE BOTTLES.I AM ALSO LOOKING FOR EMBOSSED MIDWESTERN ALES IN ANY COLOR.

RE: Your Best Heartbreaker - 2/3/2008 11:01:49 PM    appliedlips Posts: 1711 Joined: 1/30/2005 Status: offline    Tique,   Don't you collect Patent style whiskies?If so here is one for you.It is all there but has two large base cracks that almost come together and a chunk from the lip.I may have posted this one before but thought you would like seeing it.It is oiled in the pics and really needs tumbling so I can fix the lip.I'm scared to have it tumbled though.
