Trash Digger
Some of us call a highly faded ACL--often when you see little to no color from the label left, but still the signs of one are legible in certain light/angles-- a "Ghost ACL" or "Ghost label." It's a neat piece to dig up, regardless of what some might think. I recall, once, as I was digging fence posts, I slammed the post-hole digger down into the ground and heard a crunch. I stopped, slipped my hand in, and was distraught to pull out what was a local milk bottle buried about 3 feet down--firstly, it's the deepest bottle I've dug in my yard; secondly, I've dug all over there (with a hand shovel for a pond and plants--meaning more carefully) before and never found anything near intact. It would also have been 1940s. Lol. This is the first bottle you've found?
Could you tell us what the back said--all the ACLs I've come across have something on the back, usually on the body but sometimes only on the neck.
