Nice ones, Rick. I particularly like the embossed druggist with the prescription lip finish. ~Jim

Thanks for replies ! Joe that field we found points in now has a house there [:mad:] Still can hunt there but just not the same ,going to maybe do some sifting where we dug on your visit , be great to dig again or point hunt sometime with you all again .
Mike thanks ,was still here just lurking when i had time (lol) .Those acls never survived the dumps i have dug ,had to buy this one .Did find 2 more of those Sinclair bottles.
Thanks Penn Digger ,did you sell those mineral water botlles yet ?
Jim thanks ,bet i dug several hundred of those not one had embossing ,had to buy it but got a good deal .The man had two other sizes of that one but both were badly damaged [:(]

Rick,...love to make another trip down sometime...We had a lot of fun, and it was great finding arrowheads and hunting/digging for bottles with you...It'll depend on what I find for work this year, and I'll be getting the Ranger back in road trip worthy shape w/ my income tax..It's getting to be high mileage with a lot of small (and a couple of larger) issues... I know Laur would love it too...Bummer about the house going up there....a lot of development seems to creep in like that.

Nice BIM druggist, and that ACL one with label is really cool too. The ACL druggists never come out in good shape when dug, it must be a result of a less involved firing/pyroglazing process (or none at all?)

And yeah, that Roberts is a repro but it is attractive.

Joe ,hope you find something you like and the pay is good ! I remember as youngster grandfather saying "this was all farm fields and woods now there are peoples houses close enough to hit each other with rocks " thats me now [:D]
Plumbata thanks ,think you are right about the acls .I figured the Roberts was a repro ,just wanted some one to confirm it ,could not pass it up for $2
Thanks S66 ,yep not many show up for sale or viewing ,sure got to work to find them .
Here are the different Majors ,sorry about the stains they need a good scrubbing ![:)]
