Hello All,
I went for a dig this past Saturday. Found a few good bottles. Four whiskey bottles came out of the ground. Dirty Larry found two and I found two.
My finds,

From research I did this bottle doesn't seem to have much money value but it's nice looking.
/JESSE MOORE-HUNT CO./TRADE MARK/SAN FRANCISCO.CAL./&/LOUISVILLE.KY./



/PAUL JONES/WHISKEY/LOUIVILLE KY/

Some keepers,
Chianti bottle,

/MENTHOLATUM CO/REGSTD/MENTHOLATUM/TRADE MARK/WICHITA KAN/BUFFALO N.Y./




A strange one. Fox soda? It seems too small to be an actual soda bottle though,

Here are Larry's whiskies,
/GOLDBERG BOWEN/& Co/WINE MERCHANTS/SAN FRANCISCO/

He found another Duffy Malt Whisky. A larger one this time,

He dug a very nice milk bottle too,
/ONE QUART/BERKELEY FARM CREAMERY/2116 ALLSTON WAY/


Thanks for looking,
Steve

Thanks for that Jonny.Using that information I found a posting on another site that said it was a clam bullion with tomato and hot pepper that could be poured into a pitcher of beer for added flavor and color. Like a 'Snappy Tom'-'Clamato' concentrate. It's a keeper. Steve

The Goldburg is listed in the book "Picnics, Coffins & Shoo-Flies" by J Thomas as dating 1900-1918 and valued at $20 (in 1977 dollars). Nice score and fun looking dig spot. Jack

Hi Sharon, Excellent research. I didn't have much luck from my web searches.The Fox Oyster Sauce bottle is very interesting.I like that the cobalt bottle is from the Warner Safe Cure company.Good history on the milk bottle. Thank you,Steve

Hi Eric, That's what I imagined when I first saw it. Cobalt. It was the mud, sand and some kind of oily junk in the water that gave it that color in the photo. Steve
