Did some bottle diving today...

[riverdiver]

I went to a new spot today and feel like I am finally back digging bottles instead of busted stuff. On my first dive I recovered:

1. An aqua Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, Buffalo NY R.V. Pierce MD
2. An aqua N.L. Clark & Co, Peruvian Syrup
3. A clear G.L. Collins Druggist, Lakeport NH
4. A brown Celery Compound (that I gave away)
5. An unusual clear round ink embossed with hearts

And some more marbles and clay pipes.

Here is the druggist

the celery compound (common)

the unusual ink, I suppose it could also be an oil lamp too, except that it is only 3" across and 2" high.

Hey Matt,

I think I'd be surprised to learn that this is an ink. Is it a sheared lip? What's the base look like?

I thought scent when I first glimpsed it, but think it may be a mini-lamp, too..

Congratulations on the beautiful Harrison's Columbia ink!

The top pipe looks like an old one.

Thanks for showing us your recoveries.

I found a lot of very small oil lamps in pits. I think they were for kids to use while walking to the crapper at night. Finger lamps is what I believe they were called.

Cool finds!
