  • Today I go back to the old bottle dump I found this summer and dig out another section. I find some really great vintage milk bottles and medicine bottles. I dug around for a few hours until I had as many old bottles as I could carry out and then called it a day. This is a pretty long video with a lot of digging and many good bottle finds.

    Another great video, Mr Chigg! I'm 78 years of age and have roamed the mountains, deserts and plains and dug quite a few old dumps in my time. I'm sorta like some of the bottles you dig, I'm broken and not good for much nowadays, but your videos keep me from getting to crusty or growing too much moss from staying put in one spot for so long! Keep 'em coming, friend!
    Youre the best!

    Congratulations on your collectible milk bottle! The broken light was a 20's to 1940 radio tube with the pins on the bottom. The stainless " hubcaps were " Thermos " tops. All metal with a glass bottle inside. Fragile ... easy to break ( pop had those for hot coffee) . Late forties....

    Gill: An antiquated liquid measurement. In the U.S., a gill is equal to one-half cup or four fluid ounces, while in England a gill (known as an imperial gill) is equal to five fluid ounces.

      I can remember peanut butter and jelly being in those barrel jars. But I think some companies ordered maybe a million jars and when they went bankrupt the jar company’s sold off the remaining jars at a good price hence so many people remembering so many different things being in those type jars. The peanut butter n Jelly I remember being in those jars had zoo animals on the labels too. I don’t remember the brand.

    Place the bottles you don't want upside down so water doesn't collect and freeze inside. headlight housing maybe? The jar was probably pickles like an old barrel of pickles.

  • @eucliduschaumeau8813

    I dug a local dump that had hundreds and hundreds of the cobalt blue Milk of Magnesia bottles and California Fig Syrup bottles. Many were broken. I sold all of them in a boxed lot for $20 back in the 1970s. The best keepers are the cream and milk bottles, local sodas and embossed cork-top bottles. The cobalt Milk of Magnesia bottles are great window bottles when cleaned up. The only ones worth much are the milk and cream bottles with embossing on them from local dairies. The barrel bottles were mustard jars. There seemed to be loads of ketchup, pickle, olive, relish and caper bottles too. Perhaps the farm had a restaurant around the first quarter of the 20th century.

    Great milk bottles, I saw you pick up something you were looking atit was glass with metal pins on one end , If I'm not mistaken that was a vintage Radio Tube from a cabinet set Radio I have one that has the same type tubes in it the ones I've seen date from the 1920's - 1940's. I have a large cabinet Radio that sits on the floor it's 4 feet tall and it is am , and Shortwave it still works great. It belonged to my dad when I was a small kid I'm 64 now. I do think that is what that was ..thanks Chigg.

  • @edwinanixon5726

    Your enthusiasm is contagious, Chigg. Finding that milk bottle and the story behind it was so awesome. As a child I can remember going to a dairy with my dad and picking up fresh butter, cottage cheese, cream and milk. Later on that same dairy sold home made bread. They later decided to open a grocery store and closed the dairy which made me sad. Seeing the cows and other animals on the farm made me so happy. Wonderful memories. To this day the store is still open and is run by family. Keep the digging going, my friend. THANK YOU!!

    Fox Deceived is a very strange name. I wondered if there was a story behind it. What I saw was the farmer had chickens and foxes kept getting them. So, he sold them and bought some dairy cows. Hence he deceived the fox. 🦊. Take care Mr. Aquachigger.

I realize every ‘historic’ house can’t be saved but it would be nice if developers would see the value of including historic structures in new development as opposed to erasing them. Thanks Chig for a fun adventure !
