Since it looks like trying to trade this isn't going to work, I went ahead and posted this up on ebay if anyone is interested. current bid is around $1.31. and runs through Saturday.
Jung Brewing Co Mineral Water Hutch Ebay
Thanks L C. I'll keep you in mind if I can't trade it. Maybe we could do a straight sell. I don't know what dollar amount to put on it though. Maybe another forum member might have an idea of the cash value?
Looking to trade a hutch that I dug recently. It's from the Jung Brewing Company of Cincinnati Ohio Mineral Mineral Water Department.
Decent dug condition, no cracks, chips, etc. Does have some frosting on the glass. Could probably stand to be cleaned a bit more.
This hutch does not have...
Made a good go of this cistern, it's a pity the construction crews had to come and fill it in before we could get through the midpoint clay cap.
Also got a few brown cokes from Knoxville, but the pictures didn't turn out so well.

Not as cool as Mike's saloon jug!
Found this neat ACL while out exploring around town today. As best I can tell it's from the late 1950's, but I can't find much about it. Pictures below.
Any New York diggers know of any good spots to dig in or around Jamestown? I'm being re-located up there for six weeks starting in January and it would be great to meet some diggers up there to pass time on the weekends.
Thanks,
John
Hey guys!
Thanks again for the info. I held an LED flashlight (very bright) up to it and it's not a mag-light marble :(
Oh well, it's still pretty neat. Also, It's not approaching an inch, it's in the range of probably half to 3/4 inch.
Hey Everybody! Here are a few more pictures. On closer inspection it looks like it might be applied top. These pictures were taken with it full of water which seems to show the color a bit better.
@ Mike: Nope, no base marks at all. Thanks for the congrats. :-D You'll probably end up with...
Hi idigjars! Thanks for the information about the marble. I appreciate the warning on the surface design. It's small, less than an inch in diameter. The material didn't feel like the other glass marbles I found, I guess that's why I thought it was clay.
Thanks again,
John
I Think this is after 1900, but it may have been a late throw in with some 20's stuff. Dug this out of a brick lined privy today.
Has anyone found one before and have any information about it? (Brand, origin, date, etc)
Thanks!
Can anybody give me any info about this marble? It appears to be painted clay. Any info about the age, manufacturer, or value would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Mike! If you ever want to hit the range together we could have a pretty awesome time. Could bring out the Kalashnikov, Mossberg 500 12gauge, or the handguns (Colts / Glock 23).
How'd it go in Harriman yesterday?
