Digging in December

[DK03]

Usually by now I would be thinking about ice fishing, but the weather's been so nice I decided to hit the dump a couple times last week. I found a ton of bottles, but unfortunately most were slicks. I did manage a few keepers though, and besides it's just nice to get outdoors for a while. Hope you enjoy the pics.

Unfortunately not a local, but still nice. Its a John F. Betz and Son from Philadelphia. Here it is all cleaned up.

Here's a group shot with some color.

I also brought home these two ground lip bottles. The small one barely reaches 1 1/4".

The ground lip of the larger one. None of the pictures for the smaller one turned out to be any good.

Well that's about all I found. Here's a pic of some of the carnage.
