My usual fee is 1 Paine's per sq. ft., but for you I'll make it twice as interesting![;)]

When I was a kid bottle hunting with my father in the early 70's we ran across a weird Paines site. It was a old cemetery behind a old log house. My father had found some good stuff in a ravine beside the house. So he expanded his search area and we walked through this old cemetery and he said look over there at that grave. I looked and it was a grave totally lined with amber bitters looking bottles. They were totally outlining the grave stuck upside down into the ground. We pulled them out and every one was a Paines Celery Compound. He said leave them here we don't want to take them. I returned there many years later and they were all gone. I suppose it was just a cheap way to decorate the grave or maybe he had loved Paines in life and this was what put him in the grave so they outlined his grave with empty bottles who knows . After 30+ years of digging / collecting I have never run across anything like that again. bob

That's a cool story.. wacky!!
You got me wondering now if I'd take bottles from a grave like that.. I think I'd leave 'em even if they were pontiled sodas!!
