Dug about a week ago with my friend Rob... Then two days ago with Michael (NyDigger1) and his dad for a very productive dig. Haven't been getting out to dig much the past few months, so it's always good to find some bottles the old fashioned way. Here's my share of the finds from the two digs... Michael has a lot of bottles to clean up and post at some point! We both got some great stuff for our collections.

First a broken E. E. Horton BIM crown top from Newark. A whole quart blob version showed up on Friday.

A cool Ed Pinaud bottle from Paris. Common, but I like the embossed crown/plants thing.

A commonish Ransley quart blob from East Orange. Still a nice bottle.

An extremely thin bottle that survived by some incredible miracle. I'll post another thread about it with more pictures.

Another variant of the D. H. Baldwin druggist bottles. Broken but I'll keep it till a whole one comes along.

Some sort of glass stopper with a W or M on it, I assume it was inserted into the mouth of wide bore food jars.

A few of these surfaced. A common Montclair druggist, this seems to be the most common size.
