Great finds! I recently found a better section of the dump I'm digging now so I'll be there soon.
Nice finds! Never find liqueurs like the here in western NL!
Yeah those bottles are very intriguingI think its a liquor bottle , no name on it , just some numbers on bottom
not sure if I've found one before , not a size of bottle I'd typically find here
Other than the hammer needing a new handle, the hammer, splitting wedge and chisel are all good usable tools. It always baffles me why people throw away such things. Why don't people give such items to a friend, neighbor or charitable thrift store?
If you clean the wedge with a wire brush you might find it is a Craftsman Brand. I bought two just like it in 1975 and misplaced or lost one of them years ago--it still bugs me every time I think of it. For whatever reason, it usually bothers me more to lose an item than to break one in use.
I like that cup and its simple rustic graphics. I've retained and used cups with more chips than that; and the single chip I see in its rim doesn't even affect a right-handed drinker.
The pitcher is attractive. Do you know if it is a special purpose item? Is it made of pewter?
