Some Recent Bottle Finds

[cambria09]

Hello All. Don't think I have posted on the bottle forum before but here goes. I have been digging a 19-teens farm house site here in FL and discovered where they buried their trash. On my last two hunts at the site I actually went expressly to hunt bottles. Using a steel probe and my detector I came up with two old garbage dumps and (34) keeper intact glass pieces.

Some of the older ones are medical corkers, also found several soda bottles, a few food stuff jars, and a couple of intact drinking glasses. My favorite bottles are the embossed medical ones, a "Tip Top Beverages" Coca Cola bottle, a "Brevard County Power Company" soda bottle, a decorative jar, and one cobalt blue screw cap.

In addition to the bottles a lot of big iron including part of a rifle, tools, broken dishes, car parts, stove parts, and iron cooking utensils have come to light. This bottle hunting thing is dirty work but great fun...I might be hooked!

Thanks for viewing and let me know what you think. HH C9
