Dig #4

Pretty good day in the trash pit. Found a Depression Glass candle holder, 1920s or 30s telephone earpiece, crystal stopper, some broken uranium glass and 2 1920s crown tops (local brands).

That telephone piece is awesome, and nice glass too. Where's the crown tops?

The receiver for the telephone is a very nice piece, but they're so hard to clean up as they become highly pitted.

I'll attach pics after dinner. Around 6:00 P.M. EST.

Yeah, I don't think it'll be shiny like it once was. But it is a lot heavier than I expected.

Here's the cleaned up Depression Glass candle holder.

Cool crowns! I wish I'd be lucky enough to find a crown top. Nothing but 70's junk where I live.

Nice crown tops! I hope you find more.

Interestingly enough, across the cart path from this trash pit is scattered some 1800s stuff (which I have pretty much beaten the heck out of) So you never know what lies underneath. Both areas I came upon hiking with my dog. Below is a pic of the old cart path. Out of frame, on the left was the 20s-30s trash pit, on the right is the 1800s stuff. Many trails branch off from this path too.
