Bottle Hunt Behind My House Today

jeff of pa · Mar 20, 2019

Since most of the Snow is Melted here And I was out Burning .

I Decided to do a little Hunting.
Everyone up here used to have their own Personal Dump Behind their House.
The Newest Owner of the Property, Has Cut allot of the Trees Down.
And did some Dozing.

Ground is still a Bit Frozen

I Believe Old Spice Bottle

Glass I Couldn't Resist Bringing In.
Possible Cough Syrup

Medicine with Cork Remains

unknown soda , can't read top word

Wine Glass & sad Part, Looks like a Crack, Not a Bubble

Unknown White Glass, I'm guessing Face Cream but not Ponds.
No marking. All I Can find is "Vintage Cold Cram", But definitely Not "Happy Face"
Unless they are much older then the 70's
. Top is much Different

And a Large BALL PERFECT MASON Jar

That wasn't so Perfect

But will Do for my Rotted Zinclon Cache For a Park Buriel.

over Half Full so Far

Nice hunt Jeff I was never a bottle hunter until tnet or buttons for that matter I am now I've ran into a couple while detecting and was surprised at all the cool stuff in addition to bottles. Those are some nice relics and many resell well also. Well done looks like you have some great looking hunting spots. Tommy

One good corker makes an outing worth it to me anymore!
Congrats.

Used to hunt the old coach trails as a kid.
Those and other bottles are long gone now. Sigh.

Still , I have a couple around more recently recovered.
One single uncovered by deer climbing a slope led to a detecting spot....

What an opportunity! "Treasure" Did you pick up that old ''Old Spice'' Bottle. You can also tell if those ''milk'' colored glass is old if you hold it up to a bright light and you can see an opalesence (A tinge of red) in it. I bet that the white glass one will show that opalesence.

no I let the Old Spice Lay.

I Think I See What you Mean on the Milk Glass, it does sort of have a Rosie Tint

I Didn't see the Crack Till I Looked at the pics

I Think I see Early American Old Spice shulton inc

I Don't see the Reddish Tint in it.

the Ugly Wallet Cracked as I searched it, very brittle

Those bring back some fond memories. I used to find time for digging bottles. Still have quite a few! Just as much fun as detecting coins!

Nice!

Didn't think to look before.

Surprise inside Corked Bottle

I thought Cherry on a Long stem at First,
But a Bit too much like a booba-lice seed Pod, except for the long Stem.

maybe even an applicator, the Stem is not Straight, But may be a wire
dauber ball
like this

Jeff, Well Done on some very nice bottles and glass. Looks like you have a nice site, and local too. No telling what might be brought up next. Best of luck to you.

As to the Old Spice bottle, the new containers are plastic. And, as for the crack, apply some Super glue to the crack area and let it dry. That will help keep it from cracking more, somewhat.
