I did a little photo shoot tonight of some of my favorites. It gives me something to do in the winter when I can't dig [:mad:]. Here are a 16-oz KI-1 poison, emerald green druggist and teal embossed druggist citrate. ~Jim

Some 1850s privy-dug pontils. Gallagher's Magical Hair Oil, W. Braunewell mustard and a small, 12-sided umbrella ink.

Last one. Some cool druggists- Hetherington, Chester A. Baker and Hugo Brecklein's Rialto Pharmacy. All three of these pharmacists also had KI-2 poison bottles. I have the Hetherington and Baker poisons, but not the Brecklein (yet). ~Jim

Thanks, guys. Ryan, I hope we hit a few more like that one. That was just an awesome dig. I know there are a good many 1850s pits here.

Rick, The teal Owl is a good bottle. It was used for citrate as well. Did you dig that one in PA? I know they show up here once in a while. I don't know why, since they were a west-coast bottle.

Ron, I have a ton of nice stuff that could use a tumble. One of these days, I'll get the ambition to build a tumbler. ~Jim
