I dug this out of an old farm dump in Bucks County PA, last year. One of my best dump finds.

Thanks for sharing that one. I really like the embossing on that one. Do you mind if I ask how long you have been completely addicted to this hobby? Hope your luck continues! HH

Joshr, addicted to diggin dumps since I was 15, so that would be about 25yrs of diggin up history so far, and still goin like a bloodhound. I can still remember the very first dump I stumbled across and so happily dug up a childs sterling brush handle, various inks and blob tops. Thats what started it all, a way to make some extra cash from trash.

Thanks for sharing that with us. It's always interesting to find out what it was that caused each person to become obsessed. For me it only happened two years ago when I was 28. I accidentally walked over a Vicks bottle while I was wondering around on some land that I had been over hundreds of times since i was 15. We owned it plus I was pretty close to the dang house. That would have probably been the end of my bottle days had I not seen the very top section of the first one's twin brother almost completely buried. I went and got a hand shovel mostly out of boredom and began digging thinking "there is no possible way it's gonna be Intact". It just so happened that it turned out to be just that. I had always been interested in all kinds of old stuff but had never even heard of bottle digging. So all it took was that first accidental find followed by a full day of of speed reading about old dumps and I was hooked for good.

Hey steam,

Welcome to this place & thanks for showing us your recent finds. That Farmville Lithia is a real good one. I'd really like to see some closeups of the graphics on that, if you'd be so kind. It's so reminiscent of the Buffalo girls...

It looks like your dump is really giving up some goodies. I'm hoping for some introductions to those other guys, too.

I wish I could show you more closeups, but.............I sold it this year for a whopping $365.00 on the "bay". I can tell you this it was from Farmville Virginia. Embossed on the bottles was a indian man with a cane pointing to a spring coming out of a rock
