ebay listings (posted 10/29)

I dug these up in my yard last year. It was a pretty small strip that I found them it; if the dump continued on down the hill, the rest of it is under the cement patio :(. I had fun digging them up and might do it again if the opportunity arises, but I'm really not a collector. I got a lot of...

Ink Bottle?

I dug this up in my yard last year along with a handful of 1880's stuff. I assumed it was an ink bottle, but I couldn't find anything on line from my brief search. It has no seams, but seems very symmetrical. It's 4 inches high.

What is this mark?

I posted this a few days ago, but I'm not sure what it is. I live outside Saratoga Springs, NY and I found this bottom piece on the surface around some other mineral shards. I thought it might be another Saratoga bottle, but I can't find anything on google and I don't have my own research books...

digging etiquettte

I'm a newbie digger. I just found a farm dump in my backyard and have dug up a few bottles and a whole bunch of shards and rusty metal things. Soon after I discovered the stuff in my yard, I stumbled across a HUGE old dump in the woods near my house (not on my property). Someone has been digging...

Pickle or Olive bottle?

I dug this up in my backyard. A few other bottles from about 1860 or so were in the same place. I can't find any info on this bottle or the bottom mark anywhere. The closest I found was an olive vase bottle from about 1880 (can't remember the name), but no examples in this beautiful emerald...
