    The Fun of "How'd It Get There?"

    It's the tie to some real person in the distant past that underlies all of my amateur archeological interests, including bottle digging and collecting!

    Weekend dig.

    Wouldn't you know it - the blobs are busted and the crappy Dr. King's survives! So often the case. But . . . we keep trying and hope springs eternal.

    A frosty yet rewarding dig in the "Roaring 20s" dump with a rare late-throw!

    Hi everyone. It’s been a while, and I’m not really sure why. Anyway - found this at an antique store for a not bad price. Condition is pristine. Anyone know anything about it? P. Fitzsimon, 293 Front Street New York.

    Galveston Dig

    Very nice! I also love that coaster. Looks like something you might see today, which is an awesome tie to the past. What age do you think it is?
