Dr. Baxters Bitters, Jos. Triner Bitters, more..

Found these bottles on the last Privy dig a couple of days ago. Had to clean em up a bit. Found a few more ketchups, and some other blank whiskeys and gins but have not cleaned those yet. I think the Mandrake bitters was the best find although my buddy says it is the Benedictine bottle that took the day. They are all fairly cool bottles. Good for windows and such. Hope you enjoy the pics. jgas

you didn't do to bad.... I think the DR Baxter Mandrake bitter is worth around 30-40.00

I vote for the Mandrake bitters!

I've found a couple of Benedictine bottles before, but haven't seen anything like the Mandrake

Of course, all my digging is done in Hawaii, so maybe the Mandrake's haven't made it out there

If you are interested in what the Hawaii bottle diggers are up to, check the Hawaii link - it's all bottles all the time!

Thanks for the reply Traveler, yep the Mandrakes make their way to the surface around here now and then I guess. Fairly rare for these parts. That would be unusual to see one in Hawaii, but anything is possible. I will check the Hawaii site too. I love old bottles... jgas
