Looking good, Rick! Another Goundie squat...sweet. I'm digging a pit tomorrow. We dug a shallow wood liner today, 1940 [:'(]. At least that one is out of the way. We found another pit there, so it has to be older. ~Jim

Hey Rick, check out this lock I found, it's pretty close to yours in shape. I got it in a dump that produced mainly 1880-1890's bottles. Other than that , I don't know much about them. Mine was closed when I dug it, but it opened up without much trouble.
