Hello everyone. Been a while since I've posted anything. Not that I havnt been having a good year. Just figured that we've all seen mercs and silver jewelry posted a lot. So here is something different for me.
We've had a dry spell here for weeks and the river is very low. I took a nice walk down the river a few days back. Very first thing I found was a sad looking IPhone under the bridge. It's the first phone I've found so I was happy with that.
I was finding bits and pieces of broken glass. There is a Val Blats piece (center) Bromo-Seltzer blue piece (front left) and a thick piece that says Mil Wi (middle left) Also two telephone insulators that are nearly complete. One has partial patent date of dec 19 1871. I only find small chunks of these.
After a while I came across the small ponds milk glass jar and brown jar next to each other. Looked further down the bank and saw the large milk glass jar not too far away.
Next was the heartbreaker American Soda Water Co. from Milwaukee (middle rear) Hoping to find a complete one I kept going. Near a fallen break wall I found the Bright Spot Bottling Co. Milwaukee on the bank (right rear) Was very happy with that and about to call it a day.
Was washing it off in the water when I see another complete in the water right in front of me. It's a Sanitary Soda Water Co. from West Allis Wi. (rear left) So I grabbed that one and started washing it off too. Then again I see another complete one. Its the coke bottle. Not terribly old as the label was not embossed but cool none the less to have 3 completes so quickly.
Satified with my finds for the day I snapped this group shot on the fallen break wall. Sorry for the qualitly, I had to use my front facing camera.
And here they are all cleaned up. The green one I found on the way out. Not sure what it is. Believe it says 5c at the top. Any ideas?
Thanks for stopping by. Hope you find treasure where ever and however you can. Happy father's day everyone!
