Old Bottle find

[Emaner377]

I've been striking out on points lately but scored nice with some glass recently!

That one really cleaned up nice. Do you reuse? Olive oil? dressings? Gravy? do you just shelve them and admire?

[Emaner377]

Some of the milk bottles I've found I've reused for Epsom salts..this one is rare and a looker so I displayed it on an led base!

[Kentucky point]

Awesome! Those are really nice examples.

Thanks brother! I'm getting the bottle bug again! I'm gonna put some time in this week!

How do you hunt them?
I have found a few “dumps” from olden days and dug around some and Ive heard of digging outhouses but my old one gets used in emergency situations and when I have lots of company.

[Kentucky point]

When we say dig outhouses, we mean the ones from pre 1900s. It's best to dig privies and outhouses when you don't even see a building over top of the hole. The hole would be filled in, and you'd have to find it by probing the earth where you think it might be.

Not gonna do it, not gonna do it, read my lips, no digging out houses !

A couple nice examples there! This time of year that is about all I can find around here. Been hauling round milks and 1920's brass home just for something to research.

I usually hunt them while point hunting my saltwater spots they get unearthed from a nasty hurricane from 38 that wiped out this area
