Not your ordinary finds.

A while back I promised I would share some pictures from that 1900 ish dump I got into last autumn. Here's some of the more interesting finds, hope you enjoy them.

I wish I had the mate to this one.

Here's a nice cobalt that looks kinda like a Art Deco sky scraper, at least to me.

here's the frog ornament I spoke about, also a sweet little glue jar, the flap has "use this to spread" embossed on it. That little white jar is embossed with an 'A' in a triangle above the word milk. on the reverse it say's Japan.

heres an overall shot - the tall green one in the rear is a Cloverdale Spring Water, PA. , I'm guessing part of the Cloverdale Dairy fame?

here's some of the metal items that I came across in this and another nearby dig.

another.. the bracket on the upper left is hand forged yet it has a spring to it, the long part can be flexed up and down on the pin bisecting it, the pick axe and pic are quite crude, the spherical item with the flat base is a horse reins weight, there's a hollow in the center with a rod to feed the reins through.

last one, these are good 'window' bottles, nothing special, although the green squarish one does have an applied lip, and check out the size of that Noxema on the left, I found four of them that size.
