Very nice! I'm spending all my time in the woods right now looking for bottle dumps, since the ground is so dry around here. My current dump is from the early 1940's, so you're doing better than I am with those finds!

The bottle dates are a little off after research, but the title ranges are still the same... 1880-1930

Funny thing is...i found this in less then 1 day...
