Paw Paw and I went pickin' in an old falling down home that belongs to my Maw Maw's best friend. She told us we could have anything that was in the home. There is ALOT of junk everywhere, the floors rotting out and it's pretty much falling down. There were also a few old sewing machines and an old piano! I was mostly lookin for old bottles. I know alot of these aren't old but they are neat, and pretty. The perfume bottles are Avon. The glass door knobs were on the home as well. Also managed to find some old marbles...(Atleast I think they're old, Paw Paw said they were)....Enjoy!

Cool finds :thumbsup: but shouldn't you be at the superbowl? :laughing9:

Haha was in New Orleans this time last year!
 
Nice finds........i think the green barrel looking bottles that you have there are from an old beer called mickeys......we use to call them big mouth mickeys due to the large opening in the bottle....
 
Oh I like that purple handle.... to me its amazing they had color that vivid back then... nice finds!

And of course my all time favorite cobalt blue!

Chukers
 
You did good...love the purple glass door knob. Surprising to find an old detector, have you tried it out to see if it still works?
 
Wow, an old Jetco searchmaster :icon_thumright:

Hang it on the wall of your finds room.

Cool door knobs, Love that purple one
 
Thank yall very much! I was wondering what the green bottles were....Figured they were old beer bottles... :D

As for the detector - Paw Paw took it and said he was goin to put a battery in it to see if it would work !
 
Nice old glass and detector! My first was a Jetco Mustang, about 1973. Wow I'm old.
 
If he puts a battery in that old Jetco and it starts buzzin it means its working

Them old BFO detectors were fun to play with, didn't find much but a couple horseshoes and they
was on the horse :laughing7:

Wish I still had mine
 
Awesome finds! I love the doorknobs! The purple one is uncommon, and has some value on ebay.

Pickin for FREE is always fun. You have some neat finds there. Like everyone else, I like the purple doorknob.
