Hi Anna
I live in Salem. Not sure how often I'll be able to get together, but if your interested in digging together sometime i'll let you know when I'm available. I haven't actually "dug" for bottles yet. Most of my finds have been found under wharfs in Gloucester at low tide. Found some that date from the 1890's - 1910. And quite a few coke bottles from the 1940's-1950's and some milk bottles and a few medicines. I wonder where that old dump in ipswich that Jim was talking about is. Is it on the Ipswich/Essex line? Anyway let me know if you're interested in bottle hunting together.

Anthony

Hi Anna, I know you posted your thread last summer, but if you read this I am in Quincy, MA and my wife and I go up to Rowley every Sunday in the Spring/Summer to Todd's Farm Antique Flea Market. We love it up in that area and are seriously thinking of moving up that way in the next year or so. Anyway, I have dug a lot of bottles due to the nature of my work in Hazmat Cleanup, but my wife and I are just starting to go digging on our own on the weekends. We actually just spoke to one of the Antique Store Owners in Essex this past Sunday, who used to dig and she gave us her tips to get started and what and where to look. If you are still interested in finding a digging partner, I would love to meet up one Saturday or Sunday. Thanks! Wally
