I found a large dump a couple years ago , its hidden in an odd spot in the woods off a highway and not a municipal dump but used but a small group of now gone houses . I'm not exactly sure when they started to use this dump but seem to have stopped around 1990 but assuming there is older stuff there

was there on the weekend and poked around , a lot of rusted stuff on the top , often too far gone but if you dig around and find hidden covered areas you can pull out cans with nearly full colour .

well it feels kind of odd to be digging an 80's era dump I was finding some neat stuff that seems to date from 85 - 86 ( new coke came out in 85 and coca cola classic 86 )

also some cans I had never found before , Hi C - orange , FBI - fruit punch , diet tab ,

also found - sprite , diet 7 up , Fanta - orange , grape , Tab , Hires , pepsi , Schweppes ginger ale , 7 up , c plus orange , grand prix - ginger ale , cream soda , orange crush , Allan's - lemon lime , royal crest -cola .
not much in the way of bottles , some no deposits from Canada dry caps on them

and a plastic toy from mattel from the 80's , can get a pic if anyone is interested in seeing it up close

these cans mostly came from a covered area so they had full colour . have found new coke there before but this by far the nicest one

lots of diet 7 up cans

also never found the Hi C orange before , it seems to be from late 70's early 80's and was briefly sold in Canada at the time but not that familiar with it

heard of FBI before but not seen the fruit punch , smaller Canadian brand , very small can only 170 ml

the toy is from Mattel ( 82 ) for masters of the universe , looked at some similar ones online and appears legs are seized lower than others and its missing the axe
