Weekend Digging Report

[bloodj2]

Still digging in the same 1900-1920 dump as for we have been for the last 5 months, but we've finally found a decent layer of bottles. Lots of local medicine bottles, as well as abstract local sodas. We've also found a huge amount of generic amber chemical/medicine bottles. Check out the pictures below to see the clay cap we've been contending with!

Sodas That have come out of the hole:

Marble City Bottling Works (Knoxville Tenn): x2, minor ping damage to one, but still displayable
Delaware Punch (San Antonio Texas): x2 , both damaged but one is still displayable
Capacola (Little Rock Arkansas): x1, perfect shape
Al Ko Bottling Works (Knoxville Tenn): x4, none salvageable, but I'm still hopeful!

Mike (Madman) found a Whistle from Newport News, Virginia. A nice addition to the collection.

Also, I know it's not rare, but I pulled a Hostetter's Stomach Bitters in amber with no base writing out on Saturday. Looks great on the shelf!

What up Blood[]

Just had to say that.
We never dug a whole Hostetters in all my years of digging. Once I said I have never dug a Dr kilmers then we hit a hole with 35 of them in it,

Hey Mike! You trying to thread jack me here!? :-D

just kidding! Looks like you've got photo posting all figured out now. Good looking pictures of the pharms.

One of those little Kuhlmans survived, but the other two were cracked.

Not sure who the guy in the hole is, I think he's some relic they buried in there 100 years ago!

@RICKJJ59W: Well now you've said it, and you'll find a whole dump full of them. Chances are you'll even get some rare colors. :-D
