Well, the last time I posted may have been when I dug a Ball Perfection Muncie Milk Glass Lid. I've been looking for a jar to buy to put the lid on, and finally scored a pint jar on ebay last week. I took a chance, the photos were awful, and it said it had a metal lid, but didn't show one. I got...
RE: Penn digger's dump, (sort of) minus Penn Digger!
Joe, I missed viewing your posts, and others - haven't been around in a while. Your dump looks like many we dig - interesting mixture of stuff. I noticed the Petrus Ragout shard you dug, and I thought I recognized that back symbol. I have a...
Hi all, I found this lid yesterday in a TOC dump. I've dug hundreds of lids, but never this one. I haven't been able to find much about it, only that it is not common. It's milk glass, and in perfect condition. Are there places to buy a metal band for this? And which ball perfection jar would...

Surfaceone, very cool to see another similar jug. I love the old advertising on these jugs - that's the only reason I saved it. I know there isn't...

Dug this jug with my son on saturday, it was in about 20 pieces. I glued it up yesterday - thought it was worth saving. It's still missing a large portion in the back, and I'm hoping to find more pieces of it this weekend. My son dug some great jewelry pieces and a few bottles. Overall a great...
Bill, great finds - it's exciting to see nice old glass coming from a dump. You're right about being in the northeast - the dumps are here, it just takes diligence and sometimes luck. I hike at least 2 times a week searching for that elusive old dump. Thanks for posting, hope you find more...
