Found this on the surface after crews disturbed some earth for a back porch dig. Xavier Bazin, Philly perfumer. Shaving cream (?) pot lid.

Cool stuff. Actually the base, I believe?

For sure! I'd love to dig a US pot lid. I've dug a handful of British lids and one French one but never a US one.

Nice to find these printed bases and would definitely go through the other soil as could get lucky and find the lid.

Did some scratching thru the earth mound today but no sign of the lid.

Yeah...I have about 30 bases and only 3 lids to my name! Seems that is the way of the digger...couldn't be the other way around.

Nice find. This lid should fit on the base previously shown but your lid has a pink print and the base has a black print. These lids came with pink or black print with matching bases so not really a match.
