ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1434326170.876658.webpThis bottle. I don't know but think this is maybe a poison bottle? Cosmetic? Anyways, not my best dig but there you have it. There were a couple other bottles too but nothing really worth writing about here. Heres the whole lot of them...ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1434326332.936227.webpImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1434326401.124982.webpahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
 
Damaged or not you killed it today. I don't think I have ever seen that variant of a bixby. But that owl whistle is awesome I've never seen anything like it.
 
Thanks dude. I've never seen that Bixby either. I was sad it was chipped for sure. On the owl whistle...sounds gross but I didnt know it was a whistle until i brought it home and noticed a small hole in the back so naturally I put my mouth on it and gave it a toot and ah ha!!!

just the fact that this bottle still exists and survived a hundred ought years in the ground makes it worth it
 
Still a good day! The whistle is great! Don't let the damages get you down.
 
Nice bottles I had that bug poison before.ps its better then having a brick land on your head.
 
And shin right? Lol. Hey any info on the swirl bottle would be appreciated. Thanks Bass, I keep getting off the couch to give it another toot!
 
It a perfume bottle trying to be fancy!
 
Thanks john!
 
glass is fragile ,and for it to have survived being thrown in a dump is a miracle . I don't sweat a small chip or flea bight if its a good bottle.
 
I agree sun runner. But there is a point for me where the damage is too much. A flea bite...that fine.
 
Sold one of those Bixby's last year, there are a few different variants of it
 
Got to hate the damaged days , buuuuut , we do it anyway ! I have dug clear,aqua,green,yellow,Bixby's , but I also have not seen that variant . Congrats !
 
Thanks Charlie. I saw a couple on the Internet. Other than that I've never seen one either. One that I saw has a backwords S in the word polish. Got to get through the bad days to hopefully get to one good one.
