had a two month drought where I hardly dug anything decent, and I dug a Hell of a lot.
Been digging at the site where Seychick managed to dig the Del Norte Hutch, the photo doesn't do it any justice.
Killer rare bottle, at the Leadville bottle show this last Saturday, she and it apparently were the center of attention.
(Of course I had to work, so I couldn't go)
Only 5, 6 known, and most if not all have damage to the lips.
So instead I saved up my aging energy, and went back to the site this Sunday.
Very glad that I did.
Managed two rare Colorado ambers, the first a " Indian Wigwam remedies, Compounded", from Denver, and a Citrate of Magnesia"
"F.M. Streamer, Druggist", Boulder Colo.
The third amber is a nice "Abbott Bros Rheumatic Cure" that a bud I was digging with who had dug two
kindly gave me.
Three sweet ambers!
Turns out that the Citrate is only the second one known, and aside from some very light hazing on the slug plate, is in great condition.
The Wigwam is probably the best conditioned decent bottle I've ever dug.
Not a chip, ping, or stain.
I hold it with absolute care, and paranoia.
Hope you enjoy,
Carl
