Got out Sunday to dig 2 old Privy's behind what looked like a 1870's house possibly? Our Digging Buddy got Permission since he lives in this small obscure Old Town & knows the Locals. The Best Item we found was this Cool intact not Broken white Milk Glass Pitcher, mint with out a chip & amazingly the Handle intact which is virtually impossible to find that way. Some Pics below. LEON.

Years ago it wasn't a throwaway Society, they only threw it away when it was broke they couldn't fix it. Very nice find.

How the heck do you find spots like that in the middle of a neighborhood. I'm in the Chicagoland area if anybody needs someone to move real estate when they find something like that, I'm your guy.

I like that clay pipe. The majority of them don't have maker's marks. "Now find that missing piece." :) --Congrats. Nice finds.
