Congratualtions on joining the addiction...LOL

Bottle digging is a "ton" of work, but sure rewarding if you are willing to spend the time. I go out with my friend Howard Hewitt and others and always have fun! At days end we are all dead tired from digging deep trenches. The bottle finds are sometimes very cool.

Thanks for reminding me....time to make a few phone calls...

I bet it’s dirty work but rewarding if you find some good ones.

Definitely a lot of work. I've been digging at a 1920's site for a week or more now. Nothing rare or valuable, but still a blast. Lots of mason jars and their glass lids, as well as a few soda bottles.

Here's pics of a half gallon Atlas EZ-Seal jar I recently dug. Pretty disgusting before cleaning and very nice looking after about 15 minutes of scrubbing with a scouring pad. Worth the effort to me, but it's not going to make me rich! LOL!

Bottles are definitely cool to find. Great job on the glass Tim.
