That's not bad... try telling people you dug a glass breast pump... or a Hoffmans Mixture For Gonorrhea bottle... how embarrasing.
Just the fact that you may be digging in an old outhouse is bad enough...
BIXBY'S! Darn things got me hooked. Now my fingernails are always dirty, my clothes are trashed, my boots have holes in the toes, and I spend all my spare time looking for dumps to dig. Bixby's are to blame![]
Thanks. They're all commons, but have a desirable shape. circa 1890 . Yours is worth maybe 5 bucks as are the others. Not bad considering that in 1915 the shoe polish sold for 7 cents a bottleLet me quote "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" Check this just for fun [ http://www.fldstone.com/BixbyHis.htm ]
