I hit the good old Hilton Dump today and got some keepers. I haven't been able to clean them all up yet, but I will be able to finish the rest and get them posted up tomorrow. Lots of Mellin's Food jars. Last year I hit a pocket full of the mini sample sized Mellin's jars, but this time it is a pocket full of the large size ones. A few of them are embossed differently too.

A couple of baking powder bottles; Rumford and Davis OK. I always liked these for some reason. They seem to always have a nice color and are nice window bottles. Thats all until I clean up the other stuff tomorrow.

I worked towards the right side of where you were working before and I dug it deeper to the bottom. Lots of metal objects in the way and they take forever to get out but there are a few bottles under them so its worth the effort.

I got the rest of the finds cleaned up from the last dig. Here are the mason jars. The Ball Perfect Mason is an odd color, like a smokey green. I have never seen one that color before; ill post it in the jar section too. I have always liked the bell shaped Atlast EZ Seal jars too.

Here is a better shot of the color of the Ball Perfect Mason jar. The one on the left is clear and the one on the right is ball blue. The one in the middle is the odd color.

A Baltimore beer, a large amber Caton soda from Catonsville, and a Clicqout Club.

Medicine bottles. What was "Liquid Veneer"? The one on the left; it is embossed on the base only.
