The well was'nt a well....

IanDana and dumpdiver - How tall is that A. K. stoneware bottle? That place really does look like a time capsule, it is amazing the wooden spoon didn't even start to rot. Also, there seems to be quite a mix of ages in there. Great job. stonebottle

Well I had a couple hours to kill today so.... The other day I found a green perfume with the name The Crown and after looking it up I saw the ground stopper was shaped like a crown. I wanted it. The day before Ian found a simular bottle with no embossing on it so I mucked around in 2 1/2" of water with my flat shovel using it like a gold pan thats where I got the littles in the fist pic. The green one on the left fit Ian's (yeah) but it wasn't the one I was looking for. Finaly I lifted the shovel and there it was sitting on the edge, Yep, Kerplunk. As you can see in the pic i did find it again. Anyway those little amber meds are cool too, Humphreys, Homeo,med,co and Boericke & Tafel, New York. Well gotta go I'll get back with the rest... DD
