This would have been a HUGE chesebrough vaseline. Here is a pic of it next to the half pint milk. It was actually larger than the milk.

Time really flies when your digging nice bottles. I had to leave at 2 but hopefully Ill be able to get out and dig here again some time soon. Here was the haul at the end of the day. The only beer that is in this picture ended up being badly cracked so I didn't keep it. It was Bismac Brewing Co. of Baltimore.

Nice day and nice bottles. I got a nice City Dairy half pint milk from baltimore. A Caton soda from Catonsville. A Waterman's master ink. A small cobalt blue ink, a free sample Mellin's food jar,and the Sprite I got walking to the dump.

Thanks for looking. Yea, I have never seen the huge chesebrough either. Very unique and I would say not too common.

Those cleaned up nicely. Did you do anything special to clean them?

Also, nice Sprite bottle, seems pretty good for being on the ground.

Thanks for looking. I didn't do anything special to clean them; I just cleaned them up with my cleaning tools and normal water. They had some rust spots but I scrubbed those out with steel wool. The sprite was just lucky that it had good paint. I don't really like ACL bottles but I had to take it. It was just sitting out and caught my eye.
