dug & cleaned!

[nhpicker]

I picked this one from a fellow digger for $20. It was badly stained but remained undamaged so I invested some time and tumbled it for 4 days with 1200 cutter, than another 4 days with Aluminum oxide. I must say, I am happy with the outcome. It was well worth the $20 investment!

Here it is before I tumbled it---

Really nice bottle. I've only seen one other one so far. That's on my "to dig" list. Swiz

Hey Swiz, those book for between $60 & $100. My friend dug it with me and I bought him out of it. He is after fruit jars, milks, and inks any ways. He probably would have givin it to me but I just couldn't take it for nothing so I spun him $20 for it. It made me feel better. I thought it cleaned up nice.

I think so. I think my buddy dug his in an ash layer. Just a quick rinse and it was clean. I don't think he's ever had a bottle tumbled. He just scrubs them good if he has too and in some cases just wipes off the ash and taps the lip on his hand to get what he can out. I'm still after the Oceanweed Heart Curewith the embossed heart. that would be a great one to have on the shelf. Swiz

The Ocean-Weed Heart Cure is the flag-ship Kilmer's bottle for sure...the fancy paneled one gets a consistent $100-$175 every day. The shorter, plain embossed one commands between $40-$70. Definately a good bottle any day of the week.

One of these days I'll hit a privy full of Kilmer's. One of each bottle is all that I ask. Digging the Ocean-weed isn't to far fetched. Binghamton isn't that far from here. It be nice if we could find a list of local doctors and what meds they liked to prescribe. Then just dig the dumps closest to those docs. Swiz
