Upon closer inspection it has odd concentric rings, like if you tossed a stone in a pond...

Couldn't that still be a pontil, with maybe a different kind of rod used?

Lastly, a grouping of stuff we dug and brought home...We'll be going back soon with some masks, coveralls and small shovels,....we will update then,...thanks for checking it out everyone...We're pretty happy to have found a decent spot to dig so soon this year. I'd rather be out in the spring sunshine, but there's a lot more down there...[:D]

Hey Joe, Mr. Fred & Tom,

Great dig and another wonderful crawlspace spelunking story! Thanks for that, just what I needed to see. I've done but one under porch dig, in my early digging daze. It was a house demo gone stalled. What a head knocker that was. I was delighted by the number of finds and head scratching bits, though, but I digress...

If the mystery pharmacy that Tom thinks is from NYC, says "Max Zagat, West Shore Pharmacy," I say give that man a ceegar!

The 1895 Medical, Pharmaceutical & Dental Register lists " West Shore Pharmacy, 581 9th Av." and "Zagat, Max, 817 3rd Av. - Zagat, M. 103 9th Av."

I wanna see Penn Digger Tom's Thompson & Wood Druggists cleaned up. and what is the embossing on the perfume?

Congratz guys! Was Ms. Lauren AWOL, or directing the film crew?

RE: Lucky Charms Dig

Is anyone else's forum page slow?  Mine has been taking awhile to load.  Anyway, you know you're getting old when you have to "sleep off" a dig!

Hey Lauren,

Why yes, I thought Joe was done posting, there was no sign or mention of you, hence my last post, but lo & behold, there's lotz more! I'm glad you got to dig in such pleasant confines. I can identify with the crawlspace strain. [8D]

Come on, Mr. Fred surprise us...

Man, I'll say! Best of luck you guys! Bend a scratcher for me. I'll be staying tuned.

Wow, what are the odds of back to back crawlspace years. You snowbound folks find some inventive ways to scratch the itch! Great finds and good luck on more!
