more bottles and such from the creekside dump

[scotk9]

cti4sw and I have been digging this site for some time now. Just when we think its done showing us goodies...it burps out some more.
Jon has the insulators and a few bottles posted. We were digging 2 days straight and found this pocket of whole and shards of approx
20 insulators. check his post. they're awesome.
Yesterday he pulled out the Moxie bottle from '30s -'40s. Today I found a Moxie Nerve Food- registered- at the base. Nice bubbles and stretch
lines showing in the neck. better pic to follow.

Also after a few mini cave ins I grabbed this flat metal item. Turns out to be a comb on one end and maybe a nail tool on the other. It is from the Hotel Souderton- Souderton PA. the building is still there and now houses a bar. My stepson found a Souderton Historical site which contained a
letter written by Jonathan Hunsberger- the original owner from 1858. The Hotel was licensed in 1860. There is no info as to when the hotel stopped
business.

Nice moxie bottle. Those creekside and riverside dumps can run deep so make sure you're hitting the bottom. DD.
