Dug this out of a wee trash pit today...it was only about 6" below the surface of the ground. We dig a ton of this style of flask (unembossed) so I almost tossed it in the "junk" pile before I saw the embossing. Needless to say I was pretty happy...I've never dug a saloon flask before. I'm very surprised it survived...it is a big bottle and very thin. I've never seen this particular Houston flask before...seen plenty of others (some are quite common) but never this one.
