Awesome digging! Sounds like a relational database is in order.Have not seen the Hutch book, there is a large Iowa bottle book which includes the Ida Grove specimen. The only Michigan bottle that comes to mind immediately is a Battle Creek MI Sanitarium bottle. I am sure we may have dug others. We catalogue our embossed bottles by company or product name rather than by city/state otherwise I would have a better answer. Thanks
I thoroughly appreciate what you are doing. Such a property would be a dream acquisition for me as long as it had other amenities I sought. I bought a place in Montana that I've only gotten to visit a couple times since late 2020. I don't expect anything like a dump, but I am hoping to make a few random finds (other than broken insulators from generations of vandals shooting them off the old telephone/telegraph line that parallels the RR right-of-way crossing the property) when I get to working on the place.
