Well as fate and procrastination would have it the grass is still growing and I went antique farmin' on Sunday. Twas a beautiful day at a new location under the trees in the late morning sun. The first spot I hit was a doozie. Bottle and flask alike kept a popping out of the ground. Barely waiting for me to dig them. I dug so many that I have to go back and get the rest. I've only got about half of them cleaned up so there will be more pics to post for sure. A bit of a rainbow with emerald green, cobalt and a greenish tint or two. How about we start off with an action shot. What could this one be?

Ahh...tis a perty local M. Salzman Whiskey. She's got a nasty crack in her but she'll do until I find a pretty ladies leg to replace her.

Oh and what have we here!?! Could it be that we've stumbled onto a beautiful cabin in the woods?

She may be only a top but at least I know that these were sold in our local shops and are now available in our local forest. The last pics of the night are of a neat little metal find. A printing plate with 3 men, some books and a tree from what I can see. Can anyone tell me more about this?

There will be more to come soon, including the devil himself. Any info on the printing plate would be awesome and I hope you enjoyed my post. Thank you and have a good night. Swiz

I wouldn't bring that Devil thing into the house.

He's sitting on my kitchen counter top. I think you'll like him. He seems like a nice Satan. [:D][:D][:D]

See Rick, he's a nice Satan. I thought I was missing more of him, like the other 2 cards. I guess its just a couple chips and a corner. So what do you think? A poker players ashtray? Swiz
