RE: Part7 adventure at the old b******n farm

Could the embossing on the bottom have a number lightly embossed like 5, as in 5 to the gall(on)? Just a thought.
Mark

That's exactly what it is. I've had different ones over the years.

Joe dug a toothbrush last Sunday, stuck it in his pocket and we forgot about it until he remembered it the other day. We're having a hard time telling if it's plastic or wood. It says, Made in USA Ardsley. I can't find any info on it. I spoke to my Mom earlier today and she says most things she's seen that say "Made in USA" are 1900 and later (she's an antiques person). Thanks for any info anyone can provide.

Yeah Bakelite and celluloid. I used to have some costume jewelry and a purse made of Bakelite. I always liked that stuff. Thanks Fred. It probably is plastic, but it looks so much like wood.

Joe, Fred. Tom and Red.  I finally got out yesterday for a few hours.  Been helping the son out with the grandkids the last couple of months.  No time for digging.  It was raining on and off all evening, got soaking wet and slopped in the mud all evening.  I feel your pain on the mud.  Been keeping up with some of the posts, especially this one.   I'll try to get something posted soon I  hope.  It was too wet to take the camera out yesterday.   Thanks for sharing this dig.  And good luck in the mud.  There's a chance that something can be missed in the mud.



THIS IS ONE OF MY FAV. THREADS!

BRUCE ARE YOU STILL DIGGING AT THE TRAIN TRESTLE OR IS IT TOO COLD OR RAINY TO DO THAT NOW? MISS THAT THREAD TOO! HOPE ALL HAD A GREAT TURKEY DAY! NINA AND I SURE DID! GOD BLESS YALL MY GOOD FRIENDS! JAMIE
