You find any Chinamen in that whole.

yeah it was a deep one but not the deepest ive been in let alone my other digging buddies. It sure did feel good to get in a deep one tho. I can tell you one thing, If it didnt go that deep it Def. would NOT have been a good pit, if it went deeper it would have possibly been much much better.
thanks,
Digger ry

Those deep pits make you work for the goods, so I'm glad to see that you did well on this one. ~Jim

Status: offline 		Hi Ryan,Congratulations on a great dig,I dig Brooklyn,N.Y. alot and many of my powders came from there.What you have is one of the many competitors of Emanuel Thomas lyon(famous for his Lyons powder among other things).Henry R. Costar sold insect powders at the same time period as Lyons ,early 1850's and his advertizements became heated battles with Lyons ,who beside selling the product straight to Druggists ,Sundries and the like had enlisted the help of Demas Barnes and John D. Park who sold a variety of these sort of products including Drakes plantation Bitters.Although not terribly rare , the Costars bottles are seen with less frequency than Lyons and maybe he wasn't quite as successful as the "professor Lyons". Some insect powders are known from only one specimen such as my emerald green O.P Meyers Destroyer.One thing they basically all had in common is that they were produced in New York and to a lesser extent Brooklyn.
    At this point,the only thing I collect is insect powders,truly my specialty having about 50-60 or so of them.Please let me know if you would be interested in selling it to me as I will pay very fairly for it.Also,please let me know if you have any other specific questions about this or any other insect powder and I will e glad to help.congratulations on digging a nice one!                         Best Regards,Kev
