Here's a few that we dug up out of the recent privy hole.

Nice blue 3 piece mold with applied lip. It came out bottom first and I coulda swore it was a soda, but it's a nice utility. The patina looks great, much better in person.

A nice colored blob soda and western seam side.

The crier for the week. It displays nicely, but you'll notice the hole in the heel.

My new 1860s-70s coffee cup. I'll definitely use it, after a good cleaning of course.

And a bone tool oddity. Any guesses what it was used for? I have no clue, but I thought it was cool.

Aaron,...cool finds. I like that blue 'utility' bottle,...Teal-ish soda and flask are great too...What's the story on the U.S.A. Hospital jigsaw bottle? Interesting I'm sure...Did you dig that? Looking at that bone tool, It seems like it should be something to pull yarn or string?...Pretty interesting stuff.

Here ya go Joe. I posted a link when Jen and I dug that one up. USA HOSPT

The blobs not pontiled stumpknocker, but it's a nice color. It's embossed J.C. Parker & Son / New York.

Matt, the dig pic is sweet. The other one doesn't do that bottle near enough justice. Thanks for posting it. I know it's a pain for you, but do you have any other good digging pics you could post?

Another fun dig, we each pulled out a soda, I brought home some spice bottles with rolled lips, an osgoods india chagalouge, smooth base, and gothic pepper with half the lip knocked off... Can't post any of the other pics...
