Got out again today. Found another killer rare bottle. 4 of them. Forgot about this rare variation of the American Brewery Bottle I do not have. Not sure what to call it, export bottle? with it's different shape similar to a lady's leg we just call it the lady's leg variation. Tough bottle. Up against a fence I probe a good feeling spot, We start digging & first bottle out of the whole is a Quart Aqua Blob GEO. NORRIS City Bottling Works from Detroit. Very common bottle in our opinion. BUT, Right under it is a 12 oz blob & I pull out a killer Lady's Leg American Brewery. Don't think I have a pic of me pulling that out. LEON. 04012132.jpg04012152.jpg

Crier of the day or biggest crier of my digging life so far is a extremely rare Exposition Quart Amber Blob I/we dug in little pieces. I don't know of anybody who has one or ever seen one. many never heard of it's existence. BUT, TheirView attachment 179492View attachment 179493 is a photoshopped photo of one on Bruce Mobleys bottle site. The one on his site has a photoshopped/added top & bottom to a slugplate picture. Which made me wonder why, was the bottle pictured broken with no top or bottom? If so my broken one makes 2 known. LEON.

Sweet finds! Sorry about the Exposition quart. Cool you were able to reassemble most of the embossed parts. Gives a good size comp.
