    cistern digging

    I have dug several here in Virginia; some only have rocks and dirt and tractor parts, others are clean, and a few have the goodies. I would do like lex says and do a test hole, just make sure you have a partner if you are digging deep. The rocks will make it quite difficult and slow to dig; also...

    Manhattan Well Diggers dig hoard of bottles from underneath hurried NYC property developer

    Nice bottle recoveries! Just hope they filled in the holes and got permission; looks bad on the hobby to dig w/o permission. :(

    Embossed Pontiled bottles under $50?

    At the Balt show, I counted at least 40 or so, but always wondered how many are really out there?

    Embossed Pontiled bottles under $50?

    Ok, I have a technical ballpark question on pontiled bottles under $50 that are embossed; How many different ones exist in the US? It could be a fun collection to have. I am guessing around 350 or more. Any ideas?

    Privy digger question, southern diggers especially

    Sometimes there are no bottles! I live in VA and most privies outside towns will be less than 4' with just a few bottles inside (5 bottles). Towns had a few that are deeper, but looking at your pic, these are not rowhouses or 1/4 acre sites. Probably there are some privies, but they will be hard...

    Styrofoam Pepsi

    Hmm Styrofoam Fever... Why Not? Anything is collectable in this world, but I stick to the old stuff (besides a few milk bottles).

    RE: Balt Show Extravaganza Awesome post with many great pics! It was nice to meet many of the forum members and had some good laughs with Rick and Badger! Got my bottle diggin fever back too. Next year, we need to bury a few bottles on the campus to make it interesting! :)

    8 sided Pepsi

    After many years of broken ones, I finally dug my first 8 sided Pepsi Cola from Richmond, Va. I thought it was another Taka Cola, because of its light aqua color. Shown on the pic is also a Charlottesville, Va. Taka Cola I dug last year. Now we can see why there was a copyright infringement case...
