I hope that's not all you got for helping to paint the house! ..unless you were just holding the ladder..[]
I know they're not scarce, but I like them.. handsome bottles.. the first bottle I ever bought was a Paine's!
you know i have had big pits open on my job ,with thousands of bottles and i have only dug two of these[8|] maybe not a south jersey thing or something? then again an old time local digger tells me i have "very" good luck!!![] nice bottle none the less ~matt
The aqua Paine's are Canadian as far as I can tell. I was talking to some fellows that dig up in St. John, New Brunswick, and they dig the aqua ones pretty often but had never dug the amber ones.
That's interesting. I havent seen any actually dug so I have no data on them in the US. They are much less common than the amber ones here, maybe 1 out of 100 is aqua.
I still wouldnt mind finding one even if they are Canadian.
HEY CYBERDIGGER ILL TRADE YA A PAINES MINTY BOTTLE IF YA COME HELP ME PAINT , WHEN I BOUGHT MY HOUSE 5 YRS AGO WIFE WANTED NEW PAINT AND CARPET THROUGHOUT , OH AND DID I SAY FLAT PAINT ON THE CEILING (I HAVE 3 KIDS) ANYWAY I WOUND UP BUYING A MITERSAW AND CROWN MOULDING AND A BRAD NAILER JUST BECAUSE I CANT CUT IN WORTH A DARN .
