Wow nice bottles! :icon_thumleft:
 

That looks like a good reason to dig in that spot!
 

Nice bottles. I would back and search the area again.
 

Until I dug my first bottle dump I had no idea how much opium these folks took in the "Victorian" period. I found dozens of bottles of teething syrup and other preparations for hysteria mother's comfort etc. I don't think our's is the first opioid crisis. Some of these folks were getting down in a big way! Course, I guess it's not a crisis if it's legal?

Nice finds, always a window on history.
 

Gifts from Mother Nature! Lucky You.
 

The mother’s friend.... sounds like the name of an adult film.
 

Like the blue one. Congrats :coffee2:
 

Nice batch of bottles. I like that Blob Top with the cork still in it.
 

Nice old bottle finds. Congrats
 

Nice bottles...good eye! :occasion14:
