Hey everybody,
On one of our frenzied digs in the yard, my mother managed to pull something out of the ground that she thought was a root (It was dark by then and we were using flashlights) and turns out, it was a bottle!
Its missing one side, but other than that, its intact. You might raise your eyebrow at that, but around here, after the bulldozing that obviously went on here, finding a bottle as intact as that is a rare find.
Anyway, it looks like a very late 1800's bottle, seam stops just before the lip, and its embossed with "Sau'ers' Extract" across the side. Can anyone give me any kinda history on the bottle? And I believe its very common, is that right?
Thanks!
