These are from a jobsite in florence mass. Haven't been there in a couple of months because the frost was too thick. But spring is here!!!

I left all the bottles on the left but kept the 6 bottles on the right.

they are left to right:
India cholagogue Norwich,Conn.
sloan's liniment w/ some of label intact
an unembossed bottle
sax lehner bitterquelle(beautiful green color-can't wait to clean it up)
and 2 pluto water bottles

Did I mention that I get to bottle hunt all day long at work? If my boss only knew...

How can you leave bottles!?! My first-strings go in the collection, 2nd-strings go in the window to catch light, and 3rd strings go on the porch windows to hold flower seeds & serve as a burglar-alarm...
Great job you've got!

This might make the "careful" privvy diggers stomach turn, but this is how I do it at work. Unfortunately I cant do it the right way.. Some of the excavators can reach right to the cab, so I dont even have to get off my lazy butt.

My osgood's isn't pontiled. Want to trade? kidding....

I wish I could dig bottles with one of those. That'd get the job done quickly.

Must be nice! [&:] I dig my #&%*$ off to get a couple of ABM's or ACL's and your leaving bottles behind! [:mad:] You wouldn't if you actually had to WORK for 'em. [>:] That just doesn't seem fair! [:eek:] I'll tell you what; you just box 'em up and send 'em my way [8D] I'll pay the postage. I think that ALL old bottle's deserve a good home. [:)] lol lol lol...
But, please, don't get me wrong. I ENJOY digging. The struggle only makes the rewards that much sweeter!
Happy hunting...
