I finaly decided to brave the heat and go digging, 90+ degree weather or not. A man can only go so long without digging[:)]
I always enjoy finding bottles I never dug before and I got a few this time without damage. My new ones are: a honey amber Van Antwerps Mobile med, amber RIO CHEMICAL CO NEW YORK, DAVE S BAUER med, VAPO CRESOLENE poison, and a small little screw top that reads- WE GUARANTEE AN OUNCE OF ALLOY NOT A FULL BOTTLE. All others are repeats. I also like the marbles, and the spoon is killer. I will try to show a close up of it. It is a GEMINI sterling silver spoon. Patd Mar 20 1894. So cooool. Thanks for looking. Marvin

I can't get the picture of the spoon right with the flash. I guess I will have to try in the daylight later. [8D] It has two little naked children at the end of the handle and MAY printed in the middle of the stem. Where the stem hits the spoon is a bunch of flowers/leaves. Thanks for looking, Marvin

Hi Mike, I almost didn't get the perfume cause it looked like a broken bottle at first glance.
I do have another WILDROOT, but for some reason, "possibly a crazy digger with a metal scratcher"[8|] they both have a chip where the seam is at the lip. This one was less of a chip though. Marvin

Sorry I took so long to get back. That is a Van Antwerp oval shaped bottle. Check out my 16 Sept dig Mike. Marvin
