Last month I attacked a local dump relentlessly. I was able to clear out a nice hole, and to my delight, the dump layer got a lot thicker! My best finds were a local marked bean pot, a local blob, and a nice Woolner & Co. Peoria, Ill whiskey with a lions head on the front. I'm still getting used to calling some Providence bottles locals, but I've been living there almost a year now. Good news is that there's plenty more where this came from!



Clockwise L-R: Pressed glass cup, Woolner & Co. whiskey, Romoc Co. Boston (3 amber), Oates Bros. Providence, Charles Gigault Childrens Comfort, Cabot's Sylpho Nathol, Pompeian Cream, KY pharmaceutical, H.J. Heinz

I dug the same Woolner whiskey in a nice dump here in Texas. The crazy part is I dug 2 square Gordon's right before the Woolner and figured it was just another Gordon Gin. Nice digs Taylor. RC

That's funny, I thought the same thing! Saw the base, thought Gordons, even whacked it on purpose to loosen it lol.

I think it says "The Paratamph Co. Louisville, KY", it's hard to read it even looking at it closely!
