Huge Find 5/29

[Penn Digger]

Awesome! Good for you! Hope you dance a few bottle steps. Congrats on the bottles! Keep them coming please! Let's not argue about Obama's pronunciation! What a silly world to enter that quagwire of BS?

PD

Wow, quite a score. I did not see the Ham's in the Ring Ham book, I like it.

...is this a Winslow Jar by any chance?

I love your Craig Kidney Cure. Congratulations on the super finds.

You've been tearing it up lately with good finds.

How many of these latest finds were pontiled?

That milk jar is so awesome, never knew that milk was once sold in fruit jars. Can you venture a guess regarding potential value?

Is there anything on the reverse of the deerfoot jar and what color is the jar? the closer it takes is a cohansey type lid & metal clamp. The jar if it had the lid etc would be 300+- and possible red book # 767 or 768
Sorry saw you already had the info in the jar section![]

Thanks Steven,
There were only four pontils, three slicks and the mustard.
The Deerfoot Farm jar has "To be washed and returned" on the back, and is listed at $400+ in Red Book 10 with no mention of the lid affecting the value?

Sometime in the near future, someone is going to say...." Some damn body has done stole our bottles.............we had them in these 55 gal. drums....damn, it just goes to show you can't leave anything anywhere."

I mean why would anyone put old bottles in a drum unless they had plans to do something w/ them?

Why would a constuction worker do it? Would he think........."Ya know,I bet these bottles are worth quite a bit of money. I think I'll put them in these drums and wait for someone to come by and get them.........I don't need the money, I'll just use my time and effort for someone elses benefit."

1870s-1890s bottles just lying there? How did that happen, I have bottles that are outside for two or three years and they get covered over w/ grass and leaves.

I guess I just look at thing differently than the rest of ya.

Is this different that the chain saw?
