Under house...

[Phishfarmer]

I bought an old house and had to put a new masonry pier under it. When I dug the hole for the pier I found some bottles and inkwells; here they are:



Chelf's Celery Caffiene Richmond Va:


Sr. Stonebraker's Rat Killer Baltimore: (i think clear poison bottles are rare-ish, maybe the FDA required weird bottles for poison)


Husbands Calcined Magnesia PHILAD

Very cool bottles, what is the age on the house?

You need to keep on keeping on. The flared lip octagonal one in the middle looks like it ought to be pontiled. If digging one footing turned up that much, there's not telling what else is under there.

House was built in 1870 according to town records but this may have been a trash pit from an older dwelling.

If the house was built over a trash pit, the house may have protected a lot of metal relics, as well. I'd keep digging.

Yep, I see a basement in your future!

Awesome finds! I would love to see pictures of the ink well and flair lip sided ink.

Very cool finds. Dang near looks like a Columbia ink. Dig that whole thing out. Toss a detector down there with a small coil. Jgas.
