Over the weekend I went to the woods with a dump I had found a while back. I was not planning on digging at that spot, I was just hiking. As fate would have it I eventually stumbled upon an embankment into a marsh and when I looked down I saw remnants of a premier dressing bottle. I carefully climbed down the embankment and I couldn't believe it. There was glass, pottery, and metal everywhere in the marsh and on the bank. Most of it dated to the 1920s but there were many 1890s and older shards. I swiped my feet across the leaves and located some surface finds. I did not have any tools with me so I could only swipe the leaves. I also found a broken New England Bottling Co. From Westerly, and a broken Jacob Wirth and Co. Blob. I will go back to this spot when I am able to and I will dig, I can't wait!!!
Here are the surface finds:
Left to Right: blank 1930s medicine, 3 in 1 oil, blown blank med, broken 2 oz Wheelers drug store Mystic, Conn (crier), and a P.E.P. and Co. Patented jar (oyster jar?).
