4th Privy & Counting. The not so Cobalt Blue Hutch Hole.

You and Tom sure have been ripping it up lately. Those hutches sure make a dig nice. Hopefully, you guys will hit a sweet 1850's Detroit privy that is loaded w/ pontils. That will definitely get the blood and adrenaline pumping. RC

Found some really old broken shards. Real Bummer, these would of been good ones. Found part of a George Marx from Wyandotte. Only in Business from 1878-1884. SO, I guess that last privy was from around that time frame. Oldest privy I think I ever dug. Here's some Pics of the shards. LEON.

This could be possibly a early 1880's unknown hutch but to much of top missing to be sure. LEON.

What makes you think it's a Hutch?

 

[hemihampton]

Same shape & size & found with other hutches nearby in same hole. Plus Griesbach does come in a Hutch but looks nothing like this one. Maybe, maybe not, may never know? Nice to dream. LEON.
