Hi all -
I took some photos today of some items to put on eBay and then grouped together some recently dug bottles for everyone to see. Some are common and others are rare (locally). Sorry, but some of these are mentioned or pictured in a previous post of mine. I'll try to give a bit of the embossing of each.

Left back: A handled jug, 1 gal. crock, aqua BUCKHORN / LITHIA WATER
Front: 3 sided amber POISON, amber HICKS' CAPUDINE / FOR HEADACHES, blue CHELF'S / CELERY-CAFFEIN / COMP'D / CHELF CHEM. CO. / RICHMOND, VA. (locally common), amber hexagon middle S & D (<--abbrev.) / BALTIMORE, MD., small mustard or cream crock, lastly a blue TRADE EVERLASTING MARK / BLACK DYE / BALTIMORE, MD. (a bit common).

Thanks madman!
Here's a close up of the ink and of course there were other bottles dug, but not pictured. These are some of the prettier and interesting ones. There's more out there waiting to be recovered, I'm sure. Happy digging to all.
