I'm looking to trade a large box of soda bottles. These are ACL and embossed (machine and BIM), most from Ohio and in good condition. I will trade these 50+ bottles for one example of a Cleo Cola from Crooksville Ohio. I'm not looking for a mint example, but all of the paint must be legible...
I was walking a local creek looking for bottles while the water level was down, and found this bad boy sticking out of the mud. Parts of it are missing, but it will sit on my shelf proudly.
I'm wondering why all the posts not related to digging bottles out of the ground, keep getting posted in this section. I know it gets more traffic, but that doesn't mean we should post anything we want in here.
I finally dug an old hole in my hometown, and although it's nice to know that all the old holes aren't sterile, it was a bummer to find out they were dipped. Hole was about 8 foot deep, full of seeds, and the corner closest to the alley had trash packed in it from the dippers cleaning it out...
I'm guessing that this is the zinc plate from one of Tom's batteries. Found this and many dry cell batteries under a stairway, in the old telephone office uptown. Can anyone shed some light on which battery it's from? It is similar to the R.R. battery, but not exact.
I had to pass this article on. www.coventrytelegraph.net/lifestyle-news/relationships/yourlife/2011/05/25/secret-bottle-hunters-defend-their-hobby-92746-28759967/.html
Hope you enjoy it

Looking for info on this one. Different than any other clockface I've dug or seen. Says Good Night inside clock face, and has inverted 5 point star on reverse.
I found one in the crawl of a cabin, but can't get it clean. Should I make an electrolisis bucket? Is there an easier way? It's pretty solid, but I'm afraid of screwing it up, as it's my first good button. Thanks for any help.
Found this today on my lunch break. I'm trying to figure out who made it, or any other info I can.

Found these in a HUGE milk dump. Many different dairies, but these have little to go on. I saw what I believe to be a sham listing for it, saying it was from a certain trains dining car, hence the "400".
