Damp and dreary hunt at the old dumping grounds

2moshers · Feb 25, 2018

After some heavy rains headed back over to my newest found old town dump today. Located in the woods along the banks of a stream it was the dumping ground of not only some of the old homes nearby but also of the old schools that were there through the 1900s. Found several old glue bottles, one with the rubber top still intact, several white milk glass jars (Ponds-Mentholatum-Oakland Chemical Co.), an etched Chas. H. Fletcher Castoria bottle, a C Howard Hunt Pen Co. Speedball Ink jar, an RC Co. Fork, a Vernon Silverplate spoon, an old horse shoe, a 1958 Dreamland Creations plastic pig head, parts of a circa 1880 Climax oil lantern, etc.
