Hi all.
I am kind of a compulsive researcher. Fifteen years of family tree work has instilled it in me. Curiosity gets the best of me in dumps too, and I am always stuffing unusual looking stuff into my pockets and pack just to research it, find out it is nothing then toss it.
The same dump trip that produced the ball jar and pineoleum nubulizer also produced this piece, which struck me as being familiar from trips to my next love, antique shops.
Turns out that I think I have dug a Jeannette Glass Jadeite pepper shaker. The top is very rough, and only the outline of the word Pepper is still visible. Even in this condition it may very well be the best find of the hunt...

Wonder if I can find a proper cap, and maybe the salt in the dump
Thanks for looking
Mr R
