  1. 1 Pt. Stoneware Whiskey Jug

    1 Pt. Stoneware Whiskey Jug

    This is a 1 Pt. whiskey jug that I excavated on the site of an old speakeasy that operated in the early 1920's. It was most certainly used to store illicitly manufactured/imported alcohol during prohibition. Found June 16th 2023.
  2. Two 1 Pt. Stoneware Whiskey Jugs, Clay Pipe Bowl, Clay Marbles, Silver Dime, etc.

    Did some digging last evening on the site of an old 1920's speakeasy. From my past excavations here it is clear they had a good time up until the summer of 1924 when the artifacts abruptly stop (last dated newspaper from August 24th 1924). Anyway here are some of the finds from my latest dig...
  3. Broe and Gorman Transitional Hutchinson Bottle

    Broe and Gorman Transitional Hutchinson Bottle

    This is a transitional-top Hutchinson bottle I found made for Broe and Gorman of 404-6 East 60th Street NY. Although it retains the overall shape of a Hutchinson, the bottle sports a longer neck and bigger blob to accommodate a Lightning Stopper in place of a Hutchinson Stopper.
  4. Lead Bottle? Please help identify.

    I found this yesterday while metal detecting at a church that is about 175 years old. I am almost sure it is made from lead, it is a bottle of some sort, very heavy to be so small.

    This type of thread has probably been posted before, but I haven't seen anything along these lines for a while. Post a picture of your tiniest bottles!! Here are my smallest, an adorable cold cream jar I picked up at an estate sale and a little cutex bottle with a quarter for size comparison.
  8. Small delft container

  9. Penny sized Indian Chief, ideas?

    Hi, I'm new here and found this 5" down in the backyard of our 1960s suburban home. We have lived here for 15+ years and the previous owners were original. Before that the property was part of a farm. There is no writing or identifying marks on it. Both sides are the identical indian cheif...
