    WM Clark Nacogdoches Hutchinson

    Found my first local hutch! Early production WM Clark short Hutch. Saw it peeking out of the creek bed with its heel, and wasn't prepared for it to be intact, save for the slightly sheered top. Second Hutch in my collection.

    Confirming a bottlers dump?

    Makes sense! Just surprised me that almost every other bottle was a Nehi, lol. Still has been a good spot to search, come away with something new every time.

    Confirming a bottlers dump?

    Howdy! I believe i have found a soda bottlers dump, or someone just REALLY liked Nehi's. I found a spot along a creek that has bottles and glass just pouring out of the side, mixed with lots of old household trash and old corroded metal. I have found probably 2 dozen Nehi bottles, and hundreds...

    Tricks to digging below the water level?

    Dig some test holes at various distances on land. As far as under water, no clue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Finally found a Hutch!

    Yep! I talked to a local-ish bottle guy about this one, and he said it is one of the harder variants to find.

    Finally found a Hutch!

    Found my first Hutch yesterday, and it was a good one! A very good condition Syd Delamar Bottler - Henderson Texas 10 panel base. Found it lying in a creek where I had found an error "Rush" (Rusk) Bottling works circle slug crowntop. Also found a mint Christmas Coke, and an Uncle Jo In Brown...

    Creeks

    Little of both. I primarily do creeks in my area, and have found a couple locations that were dumps dating back to the 1880s. Im going to check one spot I found last week out today with my probe if i get a chance.

    Good point. The wine bottle was a shot in the dark on my part.

    New bottles found in yard anyone know what they might be

    First one id say is a perfume/cologne bottle, second would probably be a (possibly fairly old) wine or liquor bottle. First one maybe 20s-turn of the century, second, possibly mid 1800s? Im not an expert by any means on those bottles, there are far more knowledgeable people here for those

    Great day at new spot!

    There is the site of an old hotel and saloon that only appears on Sanborns up to 1921, no other records of it can be found, at least when i have looked. Unfortunately, the county probation office sits on the site now, lol. But a creek runs next to it, and i found the edge of a dump or privy...
