RE: Darm Fump Part 2 - 7/8/2006 5:19:32 PM    JGUIS   Posts: 1688 Joined: 3/18/2006 From: New Lexington, OH Status: offline I started at the base of a ravine with shards.  It's about 10-15' wide, 80' long.  It bottoms out at about 4' deep, and I have about 12-15' left till the top.  The hardest thing is removing pieces of farm equipment by hand to get to the stuff underneath.  Unearthed a wire spoked wheel and most of a cast iron stove yesterday to get those bottles.  Was it 1900-1915 that the government made them stop using manganese? _____________________________ A pipe gives a wise man time to think, and gives a fool something to stick in his mouth.

RE: Darm Fump Part 2 - 7/9/2006 12:49:36 AM    JGUIS   Posts: 1688 Joined: 3/18/2006 From: New Lexington, OH Status: offline Anything I find cracked stays in the dump unless it's something spectacular.  There are some scuff marks(like case wear) around the bottle, like it made it around the block a few times before it came to Perry county and was thrown in the dump.  That is one of the marks, (which looks alot worse in that pic than it really is) not quite scratches, as they have no depth to them.  Looks like they could be buffed out.  Any ideas as to time of use or value?  Reiter still sells milk from there, so I was figuring it was a common with little value. _____________________________ A pipe gives a wise man time to think, and gives a fool something to stick in his mouth.
