The strange thing about digging Mauch Chuck ( now Jim Thorpe, Pa ) bottles,
is that we don't dig a lot of them in Jim Thorpe. for the most part they are found in
surrounding towns or downstream of the Lehigh River. the philly and Baltimore diggers
hit them every once in while. just odd...

If you ever come across a switchback pharmacy cure bottle from Summit Hill Pa, let me know!!! there are supposed to be two kinds, I have the cough cure, I think there was a consumption cure, which I don't have...........Andy
