Backyard Dig

[nctrsctr]

Here are some of the more interesting things I found in a small backyard dig in South Jersey. Really curious to the age of the come bottles. They are 6oz and say Camden NJ on the bottom. Also anyone know about the TIP soda? Or anything else. The milk bottles were from Abbots, Sealtest, and Millbrook farms in Riverside NJ.

Hello nctr,

Welcome to TNet, and thanks for bringing the bottles.

Are the Cokes Pat. D's? They may have a date code on the base, or on the side within 2 inches of the heel.

A great Tip history: The Tip Story

Great finds, the "lice comb" looking thing is a flower holder. i learned from other TNetters that the holders were placed upside down in the bottoms of vases and flower stems were stuck into them to hold up the arrangement. I found one nearly identical to yours at a 1910 farm house. Happy Hunting, Sub

The typo(I make a lot of them) in the second line of your post really spiked my interest. I have seen a lot of bottles, but never one of those that I knew of! Good finds! Keep digging!
