Got out for another couple hours today at my larg 1940s spot I found! Found many nice bottles and period relics.

All in all another fantastic dig. I will definitely return, there is so much left! Can't wait to see what else I can dig up!

Thanks for reading,

Really REALLY love that Berry Spring bottle! The level of embossing is off the charts! Is it cracked too like the Greenville? (I hope not) I am a playing marble fan, so love to find them! This is a fun dig you're into... I had one like yours that was an hour from my house that I would go to after work and on weekends get home in the pitch dark. It spanned a long timeline though ....and yours might too. I would find applied lip bottles all the way to 1930's -40's. You just might find nursing bottles besides the toys and marbles. Plz keep us updated ... salivating

No, the Berry Spring is not cracked, the only one cracked is the Greenville. Also speking of nursing bottles I had found some broken ones. Will definitely go back since I've only dug less than 1/4 of this large dump! Hope to find some more sodas, an embossed milk, and possibly more old toy cars!

Those cans would clean up but maybe not worth the time being so common, unless you want to display them for yourself. LEON.
