Nice American Gold Rush California artifacts you should open up a museum display all your stuff collaborate with other bottle diggers you have a great day now you guys rock
Got to tell you Ned! You and Page are the Queen and King of California Bottle digging!!!!! I dug the privys,and trash pits of the 1860s,1880s ghost and early mining towns of Colorado in the 19 70s and 80s but you two are on it!!!! Love you guys and your extensive history lessons!! KEEP EM COMING NED!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Ned, you and Paige rock the bot digging. I absolutely love your videos. The longer the better, the more education you put out and a lot of us live vicariously through your adventures. Please keep it up. ❤❤❤
born and raised in brisbane(right down the road) and cant tell you how excited i was to discover your videos!! Ned im 50 now and also have had the urge to discover new and curious things my whole life.. That curiosity has earned me alot of fun times, and to be fair, landed me in some "hot water" too, so to speak. Buuuuuutttttttt *shrugs*ah well, i think its all worth it in our search for truth...for isnt that what we are doing? in all honesty? in a world (and esspecially our city here on the bay) that has lost its collective minds in a fog of ultra liberal borderline fascist ideologies and a mainstream ,legacy media, who"s only purpose these days, it would appear, is to lie and mislead the public, i find comfort in search and research..sorry for that lil political opinion, there..(im just worried bout were this government of ours is taking us) im actually blown away by the information on 'dumpville" !! thats crazy, my whole life ive heard that a large portion of that area of the city by the ball park was "landfill" and of course we all know land fill means garbage, but that a small community of dumpster divers actually had there shacks built right there, and actually rummaged and sold the stuff is really interesting..i find strange but telling parallels in this small fact with the population of homeless in sf today, ive been there so i can relate... .please keep up the history lessons i think they are awesome.. and i guess now as i carry on with my life of treasure hunting and truth seeking i will always be keeping my eyes out for some guy Ned and his girlfriend Paige in the hopes i can find some good conversation and some new potential friends... PS: can i ask, how and were did paige get that handle?? cause thats a nickname that makes me chuckle everytime i hear it!!
Maybe. I initially thought game pieces but it seems like the glaze isn’t fully finished on the bottom ends of them, which may indicate that then ends were meant to be set into something !
Did you get to check the muck that came out of the trenches? I once found a spot where such material was dumped and it full of 1870s-1890s bottles and well preserved organics, very happy spot.
I did check the spoils ! And found some stuff but they crushed and removed the dirt quickly so I couldn’t get it all. Plowed it for three hours straight one afternoon moving half a mountain lol
I posted earlier in bed Ned but just have to add that you Sir and Page are my heroes of Western Bottle Digging!!! You two have an unbelievable depth of early History and Knowledge of the Old West!!!! Just amazing Ned!!! Deffinitly my favorite digging vid of year!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Ray. I’ve been digging here since middle school when I’d dig holes in the bushes at recess into the 1920s dump that the school was built over. It took many decades and many dumps and privies to finally gain enough knowledge to me to feel confident sharing it here…and there’s still so much to learn !
Ned! If you go to 36m30s of this video, when you show the old film of San Francisco- look at the top right of the picture! There’s a whole CARTLOAD of BOTTS being transported by horse! Hundreds of them lol 👍
Love your videos sir! You do such a good with them it seems like im watching show thats been professionally edited on tv. Thanks for making them! May the bottles be with you the next hole you find yourself in
I love those Corn flour blue WM Brian Bottles. I dug one last summer all the way up here in Vermont behind a Mansion home. I couldn’t believe it, we never see color druggist bottles in Vermont. Amazing to see so many! 👍
Wouldn't the tiles with Chinese writing be an old form of a poornmans game of majong? Hugs X Ann x in Uk come across from Nicola Whites UA-cam page xxx
Congrats on the blue, was a great watch, having been in that exact situation myself. Amongst a few cool Chinese items I found a Chinese green celadon glazed spice shaker which turned out to be quite rare. Sold years later for a pretty penny.
hundres of thousands of this beautifull pieces were made for foraneus comerce, were decorative stuff, usually were made in polychrome, shining colors an solden life. I love your videos from Galicia, Spain, congratulations
Definite WOW on the oriental things found!❤ The pin holes in the botts is a little frustrating. I got into a pocket that was like that😢. A great spot you got there... see ya on your next excursion...
Love the Chinese artifacts, especially the vase! BTW, it's not a shirt sleeve Paige found, but an 1890's stocking with the foot worn away! 😅 You both are awesome! 😊
Been digging in this toxic waste dump since I was 19 so yes a form of deja vu. Side effects include major brain fog, compulsion to dig the dump more, excessive swearing, & so much more !
@@BottleNed What I was hinting at was here we are nearly a hundred fifty years later and we have two individuals scavenging the dump looking for something valuable 🙃
"He was a bold man that first ate an oyster." (Jonathan Swift) When you mentioned larger Bromo bottles, I went looking online and found one that looked like a quart size. The label was inverted because the bottle was mounted top-down in a pharmacy single-dose dispenser with its own matching cobalt tumbler. The only date given was 'early 20th Century.'
Ned can you imagine the bottles the machine brought up as they were digging these foundations? If you could actually get on site during the digging you would get a ton of botts!
I dug a few of the William Bryan bottles in The Dalles Oregon. One was a citrate. His bottles have been found as far away as the East coast. I bet there is so many great things still hidden down in the depths of that dump! Hope you guys get a chance to get back in there soon!
I’ve recently (in the last 5 years) been starting to save interesting / colorful shards. Not sure what exactly I’m gonna do w them yet but I know there is much potential ! At the least I will tumble them into seaglass
you could make that top piece back with a little bit of white clay,you are not trying to hide it being perfect,do it just to tidy it up,of course there people out there that can make it look like it's never been broken.
The Chinese writing is pre-1949. In 1949 Mao standardized the Chinese language so your characters may be any one of the dialects of China. If you know where most Chinese during those 30 years came from, you will narrow down the dialect.
Metal point is filed down. Go slow & carefully around the bott & it should be okay. Wiggling when it’s still half-buried poses a far greater risk of causing damage

Bot Ned and Privy Page, you should team up for an adventure travel television series where you plunder near and far off lands for treasure!
That tile could be a mahjong tile ! I played it a casino 🎰 one time ! Just a thought 💭 but when I see the second one ☝️ it is lol 😂
Great vid. Ya'll need to put out more videos!! Paige is easy on the eyes, and an awesome off-set to your antics. Lol.
Lol agreed

Keep the faith and keep up the hunt old buddy ! Glad you’re enjoying the show !!
The white w/blue paint might be an urn lid? Screw top keeps ashes from leaving the urn if it is knocked over, or tilted.😊
Once again , thank you for sharing such great educational material. 😂🎉
Could those Chinese tiles be a part of a mahjong game? They look pretty thick, though.

You make me want to dig for old bot again!!
@@BottleNed😢😮😊😊😊❤
Awesome dig guys. This place has lots of history.

Ned you know they used horse hair for the old furniture back in the carriage seat's etc 👍♥️⚒️❤️⚒️🇺🇸🗝️ Thanks for u
What a wonderful set of finds. Excellent job. Thank you.💕❤️

So cool.
I really enjoy how you tell the stories of your digs.
Absolutely awesome finds really cool how you talk about the pieces keep on keepin on
That cool Asian vase you found you should take and cut the top off with a tile saw and make it back into a vase.

Thank you so much for the bottle, I received it last week. I’m a little behind on videos, just catching up now.😊
You're welcome, Laura! Thank YOU for your generous support on Patreon..
Brilliantly done clip, really enjoy your style👍
Great video BN!
I have dug for old bot before! Where? I Pleed the fifth!! I found an old fork and I still use it to this day!!

Great vid!
Awesome video Ned. Can't wait for part deuce of return of the ooze. 👍🤘
You're not experiencing any Deja vu? Love the history 🙃

@@BottleNed What I was hinting at was here we are nearly a hundred fifty years later and we have two individuals scavenging the dump looking for something valuable 🙃
Dannnggg - good call !! The irony of that flew over my head like a fighter jet!! The dump is definitely getting some deja vu from us!!!
Great video! Your so entertaining!

Wow ! Was the citrate blue also ?? I don’t recall seeing a Bryan citrate but there are many many from The City

Great video
great ,Ned your new friend is wise,practical,and pretty, and has a good effect on you
i have a 8" bromo with backwards z, great video brotha, Gary in napa
Ned you are a lucky man and I am not talking about bottle digging. Page is a lovely lady, hold on to her!
is a chinese canton vase, from arround 1840-1870. nice piece.
Wow ! Thank you. Many of the Chinese immigrants in Ca were from Canton so that totally checks out
Must have smelled really good!!
Man it does - like old dock pilings at low tide after an oil spill…Mmmmmm
Do you ever save the broken glass and pottery to use for tiles and decorating other broken pieces like a pitcher or jugs?
I’ve recently (in the last 5 years) been starting to save interesting / colorful shards. Not sure what exactly I’m gonna do w them yet but I know there is much potential ! At the least I will tumble them into seaglass

The brass clam and ball was early attempt at the old army game 🤔
Hope you find out what those Chinese tiles are. Paige is so enthusiastic.
Hell yes! When you did bot info from your shitter I just died laughing! 😂😂😂😂🤓🤓🤓😁😁😁
Would you ever consider coming to Lakeview OR to dig a privy? 🤔🥰
I wonder if those oriental tiles are Majong game pieces?
cool bean
The Chinese writing is pre-1949. In 1949 Mao standardized the Chinese language so your characters may be any one of the dialects of China. If you know where most Chinese during those 30 years came from, you will narrow down the dialect.
Paige is just so beautiful!
Wonder if those Chinese tiles are for some form of printing? 🤔🤔🤔
Well I just gotta say again that I'm in love with previ poking Paige even more so now that I've seen her with a zappa T-shirt on
That leather piece was a stirrup strap
Thank you ! Someone else mentioned that too. I believe you’re right !!
By the look of your gloves bidenomics is hitting you extra hard Ned lol, Great stuff as usual mate.
" the more things change, the more things stay the same".
Dumpville is still with us...Call them homeless now...💔
Do t wiggle it bit poke close with a metal pointed stick.

Majhjung tiles
Majog
Nice but just how big is your face thats a quart right?
Love you long time 😂😂
The Chinese tile on the left says, "Egg Roll". The one on the right says "Wang Chung". You are welcome.
Ned, that 3 P gets cuter everytime I see her!!!!
Is privy poken paige your girlfriend? I hope so, she's a cuttie!
And even more importantly - she likes to dig !
Sweet, keep her close friend ❤
Very nice! She is a sweetie!
I'm just here to look at your girlfriend 😉
Did anyone clean up the mess the homeless left? I did not enjoy this video, all I saw was trash dominating the scene doesn't this bother you?
She is so cute I just want to kiss her all over!
You should try to get these down to ten minutes
I tried - it’s so hard to create a narrative in such a short time. Also, many are demanding longer vids ! It’s tough finding a middle ground
Please don't shorten your videos@@BottleNed. youtube can be paused by those with attention deficit issues :)
I personally enjoy the longer videos @bottlened you and Paige work beautifully together!
Awesome VID!!! Go Paige and Ned!! xoxoxox
The Chinese symbols are actually mandarin..they read.....mesofunknhornee and sukforabuk!!!!!they're from an old cathouse!!!!
