1901 House with a few keepers - VIDEO - Oh Boy!!!

ModernMiner · Nov 7, 2013

Well Folks, I recently had a retina surgery and was laid up for a while. Just before the surgery I had scored permission to detect a 1901 home, so for over a week I had visions of sugar plums dancing in my head just dreaming of what I may find. I finally made it over there yesterday, but not sugar plums to be found. :icon_scratch:

I recovered a few things, but nothing too exciting. The house I was told sat vacant for some time, so I'm pretty sure someone hit it before me. No big deal, I was happy to just get out again.
I plan on giving the relics to the owner.

Here's a video for your viewing pleasure:

That's all Folks. Thanks for looking. :thumbsup:

The Tootsietoy was modeled after an actual concept car. It's a 1941 Chrysler Thunderbolt as designed by LaBaron. Cool toy and some of the actual cars still exist. Tootsietoy made the toy from 1947 to 1949.

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Thanks a bunch for that great info on the TootsieToy. I learned something new today. :thumbsup:

WELCOME to Tnet. :occasion14:

Nice finds. I think that the wrench is one that came with a Maytag wringer washing machine with a gasoline motor.
When I was a child my Mother had one and the wrench fit the oil plug and gas tank.
Good luck & HH

Jeweler,
Thanks for that info. I knew it was some sort of specialty wrench, but I had no idea what for. :dontknow:

I love those old Maytag wringer washers. I turned one into a ice cooler for beer and sodas once, and mounted a bottle opener on the wringer housing. It came out great. Durable as heck too. :thumbsup:

Thanks Nana. I told Quindy we all need to get together for a hunt again. I'm closer to both of you now. :thumbsup:

Thanks Travis. :thumbsup:

No silver like in your hunts, but I'm trying. :tongue3:

I'm still working on my videos. I think I need a 5 yr old to show me how to merge numerous videos, and add text and music. I'm still using Polaroid and 8-tracks. LOL
Have a good weekend,
Doug
