    Diggers and friends, I am looking for dug doll parts for an art project I am working on, particularly heads, but at this point am interested in anything that folks may have. I can trade nice WA state pharmacy bottles of which I have duplicates of, other druggists, common to scarce mason jars, or...

    Woodbury Glass Lid with Mini Cap for Trade

    Hey jar team, have a Woodbury Glass Insert with Minicap to trade for: A midget mason zinc lid and a midget zinc band (that would fit a Midget Masons Improved jar) Or A nice embossed druggist or two from your home town! Need to re-unite this lid and cap with a jar that needs it ;-)

    This jar was an exceptional find from a dig yesterday, RB 1640-1 MASON (Reversed N-straight line), in a light green. "Unpriced" in the newest RB.... D'OH!

    Moonshine Container or What the Heck is It?

    By far this is one of my most bizarre acquisitions as it came with another auction item I was pursuing, so have no clue what this is. Has anyone seen anything like this before?

    SRXX Ohio Bottles

    Any east coasters or other collectors out there know anything about these? Tod has two of five listed, but other information on the company and dates seems to be non-existent. Anyone have any bottle books that may have an entry or information?

    Pontil-Marked Figural Bottles

    All, I am interested in gaining some insight into what these two bottles on the right may be, as I just recieved them in a box with some other auction items I purchased via the web and had initially disregarded them in the auction photos but now that I look at them they are both pontil marked...

    What to do with all that "other" stuff you Find?

    Yeah, the slicks, broken, and misc stuff etc. I find the 'relics' part of the find often more exciting than the bottles, but in this case I was really board and either had an inspiration of artistic brilliance or likely breathed in some heavy PCB's in the last hole I was digging in and am...

    Marble Find

    My first marble find while digging. It is a really imperfect sphere, so not sure if that helps and I can try and take more detailed pic if needed...

    My First Dig(s) Finds!

    So finally, after years of collecting, I was able to hook up a few weeks ago with some local jedi masters of digging who were willing to take me on as an apprentice! While I don't have any photos of the actual digs in process, the three times I have gone out thus far have resulted in some very...

    D'OH Asleep at the Factory?

    Not sure how common these are but thought I would post this, as it was found in my first "official" dig in a 1920's trash pit about 4-5' underground this past Friday! I kept all of the inserts, which mostly get thrown back in when the hole gets filled, and saw this reverse F when I was...

    Masonic Flask or What Is It?

    Acquired this the other day and I apologize in advance for the poor photos, it is a dark cobalt glass, so I will try and take some shots again if and when the Sun comes out again. From what I can see, one side of the flask says: Upper Lisle Lodge 388 F. & A. M. N.Y. The other side of the...

    St. Helens Soda

    Found this one today in a Coffee Shop/Junk store. Not really a soda collector but thought it was cool from a local standpoint and historical standpoint as well. If they were to release these again, they would have to cut off more of the mountain peak!

    Baby Face Milk-Real or Reproduction?

    Folks, I would appreciate any help in determining whether this Baby Face Milk from Hellertown, Pa is real or a reproduction. The woman I purchased it from remembered if from the early 60's but you know how that can go......

    Antique Store Discovery from the UK

    This was an interesting find today. I don't know much about UK bottles at all, but this was a really neat one. From what I have been able to find from the websites below, I believe this to be an early three piece mold bottle: Bottle Body and Mold Seams. If someone could confirm for me that...
