Found a nice bottle dump today.

All that I brought back today--the key-thing is an odd one. I cannot quite read everything on it.

All in all, I dug down 2 feet. At first I found the 1953 (Yes! It's another variation I haven't seen!) Paul's bottle just outside of the main area for sodie pop bottle. This one made me excited. You know I like the Paul's. I then went forward, digging the hole wider, and hit beers dating to the early '50s also--mostly shattered. But! I found two bottles with a tin--looked like tin foil-- foil label on them still! One was the exceedingly common barrel-like beer, and the other was a liquid deodorant. Hardly anything left of the label, but words were legible! I left 'em. I discovered what would have been a gorgeous Hire's Root Beer ACL bottle in Amber, but it was only one large chunk. Also I found a 16OZ. O-So bottle, base missing, more Coca-Colas--one from Ionia-- also shattered, and numerous others till I got to a certain point left and hit a lovely nest of ants. As a cub, previously stated, I had a bad run-in when falling into a nest once. I used to love ants, as a young cub. I moved over, dug around, found a shattered Dairy bottle with orange ACL and a cow!, a Farr View Dairy cottage cheese plastic tub, and that they buried their little baby girl. Baby doll, that is. Pardon the sick humor. At the next mound I happily dug into the taillight(?) and an even more complete ACL Sunrise bottle! And, as suggested, I'll wait a few days to clean it. I brought back a WILDROOT bottle that was on the surface (not far from a broken Paul's--numerous broken Paul's in the hill. []) Does anyone know what WILDROOT was? It had the cap, and some wax-like contents that smelled like wet graphite. Also a Noxzema cobalt bottle with an odd shape I dug.

ACL Sunrise! [] The deeper you dig, the brighter it looks--Until those nasty war-planes called mosquitoes break through your defenses, as you try to carefully insert your shovel yet break-up roots and block them. That's it for today. As in the Water-based bottle hunts that were my specialty, it's about one keeper an hour. Baring surface finds. Not super productive, but worth it all the same! [] Now time to raid the ranger's cabin of food for lunch.

Wildroot was a hair tonic for men. Cool bottle and the embossing on them is awesome.I find quite a bit of those bottles here.The Paul's is definitely a looker. Looks like it is in great condition.The KEY looks to be a can opener. I have some military issues ones that look very similar to this but in green.The tail light looks to be a rear motorcycle turn signal. Any numbers on the lens? Usually indicates a year.

This one appears it'd have had a paper label. Be amused, Mister Rocket, I'm talking to someone on toy rocket design.
Other than some wear on the rings, as standard, and a rust stain, yeppers!
Thanks for the help on the bottle/key/turn signal and the compliments! I didn't see any numbers, sorry.

Not going out today as it's raining.

Pretty sure this hasn't been answered yet, I think your insulator is a radio strain insulator. I'm not entirely sure what they were used for, other than it involving radios. If you can find the glass ones they can come in some really great colours.

May be all wrong here, but seems that years ago, there was a razor that you stick the key in, slide the little tab, which inserts a new blade while ejecting the dull one. The metal box held several new blades.
