Some of you may remember a week or 2 back I posted about the bottle dump at my cousins house......It was REALLY cold the day we saw it so just looked around a bit and found the coke bottle with the dec 25th 1923 patent. Well, we went back today and spent 3 hours rummaging around. I took a rake....but not a shovel.... :icon_scratch: So...I dug the cave man way...with a stick. :tard: Anyway....we found a whole lot of bottles...but not what I was hoping for. Nothing extremely old...although I really dont know much about old bottles. There are some cork type, and some neat looking ones anyway. I think what I like the best was the 2 marbles. Also....one cool Jumbo brand peanut butter jar. Also met a couple of new friends....a large at least 7 inch long lizard and that scary looking centipede. He was living in a tiny bottle. Whe I go through all these and clean them up I will post more pics. And yes....I am going back with a shovel....not just looking for bottles....but now on a marble mission!!

Still some neat bottles I see in the mix, neat little lizard too. Oh and the marbles too.
 

You definitely have a treasure trove of glass bottles....

If the tub doesn't have any holes in it , you might want to take ...did you look under the tub...?

Great finds......take more pics.......Mike
 

Love that PB jar!!!
i had a pet skink just like that for 6 yrs.....would take food(insects) out of my hand after puffing up and hissing, flicking it's tail like a cat....
 

Yuk, centipedes and snakes. Looks like you found a nice place to hunt some old bottles. Keep us updated on some good ones :icon_sunny:
