I found this Lewis F. Jones bottle from Philipsburgh PA. The bottle is listed as rare on a hutchbook directory.



Another neat piece i found was stoneware. It says Vitreous Stone Bottles, Pantentees Danby pottery P &J Arnold, needs some cleaning but in great condition.

I've got a rough idea for the stoneware, but i was wondering what you guys thought about the hutchinson? I was very surprised to find the stoneware after digging count less pieces of pottery and jugs.

I don't know the Pennsy hutches, if Ron has it listed as rare it must be a decent find, if you're asking about a value I can't help...

I've seen Hutches listed as rare get as little as $5.00. I'm sure it's worth more then that. What Most people dont know is the small brewery in Phillipsburg made a beer can that is easily worth $10,000. LEON.

Like Leon says rare doesn't always mean value, but Ron's research is really good and he relies on alot of people local to the areas where the bottles are from as to rarity...

Nice to see you posting. I dug a similar stoneware piece last year. Clean that hutch up a bit and post some more pics. What else have you to share from your digs?
