Relic Hunting a turn of 20th century boarding house

[Rhapsody]

Had a few hours today to return to the permission where I dug a pretty cool Denver Stock Show vendor badge a few months ago and came up with a few cool relics, no coins today but as a dump/burnpit relic hunter I seldom find them anyway so 'ce la vie'. Hope everyone is in good spirits and sound mind today, some cool posts today for sure!

I would rather dig artifacts over coins myself, so I get it. Hey, I really like that druggist bottle....sweet and local.

Thanks for the support I really like that also. Turns out Chas Getz (the druggist on the bottle) advertised in the local Montrose paper in the fall of 1902 that he had several new products to offer that spring: Diamond Cold Cream, Camphor Ice, and Diamond Cream then goes on to boast of his own 'One Minute Cough Cure' that seems to alleviate his wife's cough (thinking she maybe had tuberculosis). Kinda cool .

I wonder if it contained some opioid!? Two of my favourite small medicine bottles I found were Davis Vegetable Pain Killer ones that had opioids.
Supposedly was a cure all in the day.

Cool bottle for sure.
Good to see that you're getting some time to dig in the dirt.

Nice haul !

 

[jewelerguy]

the item marked Ft. Supply looks to be from a dog collar. Probably a bird dog, as I think pheasant and quail are found in that area
