I so look forward to seeing you every Friday. The little plate you found is called a "butter pat." Many years ago, back when I was a college student, I used to collect them. They were an inexpensive excuse to prowl around in some wonderful antique shops.
Love watching you dig and detect brings back lots of memories of when I was capable of doing the same, now I sit, watch you, and wish I could do the same. No one, the toothbrush is made of bone And the bristles are horse hair. Love the blue bottles most of all! ❤️ From Australia on a Saturday morning. 😁
Brad, what wonderful finds! The little blue transferware piece looks to be a butter pat from Johnson Brothers in England. Thanks to Greg too! I have a clay marble that was my dads ❤ it's on my bucket list to be able to go on a dig like this!
Hey Brad, Not everyone enjoys digging in damp dirt. But those of us who do are glad to find old, interesting, whatevers to marvel over. So everytime we find you out in a forest, a clearing or on a mountain side we, or at least I, have a physical, emotional, and mental reaction. My ears perk up, I sit up straighter in my chair, I develop tunnel vision to the monitor of my computer and I just feel a little getty. The joy of the hunt, the thrill of the find, can change a person's outlook for the day. For this, I thank you. take care
The course tag was probably for course salt. It was used for pickling and for putting up hams. I remember my grandmother having crocks with cucumbers and beets setting around in the fall.👍♋
@@YvonneWatson-ff5ex That's true and other things like cauliflower. Used to really love my grandmother's bread and butter pickles. It's the simple pleasures that bring the best memories for me. Have a great day.👍♋
My grandmother had an old timey wringer washer and next to it she had a tub of rinse water and a tub of bluing. She used to rinse her white bed sheets in bluing. Also, I remember Bromo-Seltzer from when I was a kid. It's like Alka-seltzer. The bottle you found was small because it contained a powder that was mixed with water.
You can still get it at the store in the laundry section. It makes your white clothes so bright! My grandmother used it too, and I keep some. When your whites get that yellow tinge from bleach I run them through a cycle with the bluing and they come out bright white again. Nothing else does it as well. Old ladies used to use it in their hair too. Where get the term "blue haired old ladies"
Thank you! I really enjoyed digging with Brad in all of these videos. I'm not sure if there will be more next year. The dump is pretty much played out. People in the village where I live have used the 13 acres that I own for a dumping ground for years so there are things scattered across the property but I lot of it was newer and I cleaned it up over the years after I bought the house. I have done some detecting along the trails but haven't had a lot of luck. Maybe there are some things buried off the trails and we can give that a shot next year.
The little bottle with the dropper was most probably a product used for first aid when I was a child called either Mercurochrome or it could’ve been iodine. These were a liquid that was either orange or red orange in color and stained everything they touched, including your skin. And it burned like fire on a wound! And I remember those glass milk bottles as well! The milkman still delivered milk when I was a child and mom would get one cream once a week and two bottles of milk every other day. The milkman wore white and drove a white van looking vehicle. Darn, I’m old.
Hi Brad, I love your videos! You're videos with Greg reminds me of our old house on the Cape. When I was young, I found some bottle dumps deep in the back yard. If I only I realized what a treasure it could be.
That's not true. Ddt was banned by the epa right after Nixon signed the agency into existence. There were rumblings that the epa was unconstitutional. That only congress could make laws. So the epa merely called them regulations. They banned ddt because the patient had expired and knew no company would challenge the ban because there was no real profit in making and selling ddt, thus creating legal precedence. The eagle egg nonsense comes from the book "a silent spring" by Rachel Carlson. The book is fiction. But lots of poorly read people over the years have repeated the story. Draconian federal anti poaching laws are what saved the bald eagle.
@@uptoolate2793 Well I actually grew up on a chicken farm called Metz now owned by umpqua and farmers pride - Bell and Evans. Not sure if you’re familiar with Metz hackle for tying flies for fishing but we had hundreds of coupes containing hundreds of thousands of chickens of all kinds. I’ll stick to my theory that was proven fact. Thanks tho.
Unfortunately, the banning of DDT lead to the death of millions in the third world from infectious diseases spread by mosquitoes. It is estimated that by 1966 the use of DDT had saved 500 million lives by stopping the spread of diseases from mosquito transmission.
Looks like you had quite the lady living there- with the honey almond cream and the fragrant lotion bottles. I would also suggest that the small dish thing is indeed an ashtray. A lady's ashtray. One never smoked more than one on any given occasion. Great dig!!
Good morning and coffee with Brad. It's always good to watch you finding good stuff and finding different items like bottles. It's reminded me and a friend of mine going bottles the excitement that he would show when he found something new or unusual. I love going out with him for a good time that we would have laughing and finding new stuff and coming home tired and dirty at the end of the day. He was amazed that I would give him everything that I had found. I told him that the thrill of finding anything was what I always enjoyed. After many years of collecting, he separated the best finds and went to the flea market and sold what he didn't want and traded for the bottles that he knew he wouldn't never find in the area that he hunted. He had thousands of different bottles. Sorry for being so long on the story. But I enjoy watching you going out and hunting for everything you find. Have a great day, Brad, and God bless you and your family.
Awesome guys, I enjoyed it every time I wish I was there with you stuff I like to do when I was young guys have a great day have a good New Year's and stay blessed.👍🙏
Cannot wait for Friday! Besides it being the start of the weekend, it is a video from you! Excellent. I sure do enjoy each adventure! Oh, and I love the leather log book I purchased! You are an artist and top quality! The best!
I believe .. the 'Johnson Bros. England' shallow "little plate" with a Transfer-ware decoration very possibly was used as a Salt Cellar in the Dining Room and would have been one of several included in a complete set of English Transfer-ware Dinner-ware service .. Another enjoyable day in the Green Mountains Brad .. Happy Holidays to the Martin family !
When I first invited Brad up for the first dig I knew we would find some bottles but I didn't expect it would turn into a 7 dig excavation with hundreds of fantastic bottles. Not to mention all of the metal artifacts. Many of those Brad finds when out in the mountains metal detecting, like horseshoes, irons, iron rests, knives, silverware, and makeup compacts. I have a great collection of old bottles including a gallon jug and a small crock. It has been a lot of fun and I'm a little sad to see the end of it. :(
When I was a kid Dad used to take us up to Ripton and Lincoln to dig in the old dumps he found while working for the Forest Service. It was a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. When Brad put the Fitzgerald Brewing sign on the screen @9:21 I noticed a couple of names from Rutland near the bottom of the sign. Perhaps they were distributers up this way?
@@BarryWilkinson WOW That's a good catch. That might explain why there were so many Fitzgerald bottles in the dump. I'm pretty close to Rutland, right on the New York border west of Rutland.
@@gregorymanchester Fitzgerald Bros are still in business, they are the Pepsi distributer for the Capital/Saratoga Region. I'm not sure of their coverage area but I have seen them delivering in Whitehall.
I believe that the Bromo came in a crystal form and you mixed it with water and it fizzed and afterwards you drank it? I would think that the bottle you found would be a sampler size?
Love digging bottle dumps, found some neat bottles 45 years ago on the 3 episode farm. Used my old Compass metal detector to find it. Enjoying your videos as usual!
Love the videos and the bottle digging is a nice switch up from metal detecting. Has anyone mentioned how much Greg looks like the actor Paul Ford ? Kinda uncanny ? Great show !
Hi from Oregon, I really enjoy your digs so fun to see all the wonderful items you pull from the ground. I hope you have contacted Branden at Adventure Archaeology for rarity and value of the bottles your finding. he is in Alabama and old bottles are his thing . "see" you next week on another adventure.

Love your videos. The "... land" is England (first part worn away). Johnson Bros. still produces dinner ware. This dish was probably a salt or condiment dish, and, yes, probably part of a set, from late 19th or early 20th century, judging from the design. Later : I note that another viewer suggested a butter pat. That, too, seems likely.
@@kathleenweaver8364 Years ago I dug up a "salt cellar" spoon that someone had a jeweler solder a pin on the back and made a brooch out of it. I also metal, detect since 1960.
Hello again, Greg. Thanks for letting Brad dig around on your land and share it with us. Much appreciated. If this were my land, I'd be digging holes every day. Fun stuff!
Thank you for the tip. I've looked him up. I've never been mudlarking. Not sure there would be many places around here where I could find things AND I'd have access to. It does look like it would be interesting to do.
Someone has probably already told you, but that little bowl is probably a butter Pat dish. The little flat areas on the rim is for the butter knife to rest on.
Got a bottle dump by my house like this we used to dig around in as kids. Makes me want to go revisit it and dig around again. We found some crazy stuff in there. I still have a large silver bracelet we dug up inscribed with someones name and 1738. Tons of old poison bottles and different types of tonics. We never really went below the surface this was pretty much all still in the top couple inches of the ground can't imagine whats below.
the johnson brothers dish that from the comments seems to be for serving butter is a Hop print. the leaves, "flowers", and vine are all just like a young hops. super cool
Save both green and brown beer bottles. Different colors are prized variants and may reflect different periods of production. The salad dressing bottle is pressed glass. The little dishes may be for butter pats or nut dishes. The bottle of digestive may have been a powder that would be mixed into water to drink. The tiny brown bottle may have contained iodine. It would be good to see a followup video after the bottles have been cleaned. Saw a lot of graniteware that was rusted, but would be good to document the items. Am happy to see that the glass dump is still producing.😊
I believe those little dishes are called “salts” by many. They were used to serve salt from at meals, often a rather tiny ceramic spoon accompanied them, they pre-date the salt shaker for the most part.
Just a quick little note on DDT - it is still able to be used in the US under certain circumstances as a disease vector and both the Stockholm convention and WHO recognize it's use for malaria control and leave it up to the individual country to determine use.
The little porcelain flowered saucer with the 4 dimples maybe it was for putting the stire spoon on when after using it instead of putting it on the table or counter I dunno just a thought. 🤔
I remember Jumbo peanut butter back in the 60's. We used to get it in a wide mouthed 3lb. Glass jar with the metal screw lid. Ours had a paper label with a circus elephant on it.
Once in leadville Colorado we dug an 1880s privy, a coffin whisky flask got busted in the hole. It was full of 1880's urine! The whole block smelled so bad we had to rebury the hole 😅.small jugs with murcury from miners even a chemical burn from an uncorked bottle of caustic soda. Most of the old time bottle diggers I know ended up and are still dying from odd diseases later in life😢.
I so look forward to seeing you every Friday. The little plate you found is called a "butter pat." Many years ago, back when I was a college student, I used to collect them. They were an inexpensive excuse to prowl around in some wonderful antique shops.
I’ve heard them referred to as butter pat or finger bowl. I never looked into them or saw one in use.
The small dish held butter.
A hundred years from now ,some one will dig in our stuff ,and say why all these plastic water bottles,
@@deanhockenberry9268it is much smaller than any finger bowls I have seen doesn’t mean it isn’t one, but…
Love watching you dig and detect brings back lots of memories of when I was capable of doing the same, now I sit, watch you, and wish I could do the same. No one, the toothbrush is made of bone
And the bristles are horse hair. Love the blue bottles most of all! ❤️ From Australia on a Saturday morning. 😁
DDT is before your time ❤ oh my I’m old❤
My father was a crop duster and DDT was one of my favorite smells 😂. It meant daddy was home!
The little dish is an individual butter serving disn. Thanks for sharing your adventures.
Awesome nice seeing greg again
...good post, you two!...
Brad, what wonderful finds! The little blue transferware piece looks to be a butter pat from Johnson Brothers in England. Thanks to Greg too! I have a clay marble that was my dads ❤ it's on my bucket list to be able to go on a dig like this!
Hey Brad,
Not everyone enjoys digging in damp dirt.
But those of us who do are glad to find old, interesting, whatevers to marvel over.
So everytime we find you out in a forest, a clearing or on a mountain side we, or at least I, have a physical, emotional, and mental reaction.
My ears perk up, I sit up straighter in my chair, I develop tunnel vision to the monitor of my computer and I just feel a little getty.
The joy of the hunt, the thrill of the find, can change a person's outlook for the day.
For this, I thank you.
take care
Very true, now I see bald eagles a lot here in Michigan.
The course tag was probably for course salt. It was used for pickling and for putting up hams. I remember my grandmother having crocks with cucumbers and beets setting around in the fall.👍♋
And cabbage.
@@YvonneWatson-ff5ex That's true and other things like cauliflower. Used to really love my grandmother's bread and butter pickles. It's the simple pleasures that bring the best memories for me. Have a great day.👍♋

Love this "series". Definitely add these in every so many weeks. Hope you get back up there to his land in 2024!

Happy Friday Brad and anyone reading this! 😊❤

Ditto.
Methiolade was the other first aid med with a dropper.im sure that's probably not the way it's spelled but ..
I enjoy these videos as much as the metal detecting. They burn give a glimpse into the history of lives of Americans.
Hi Brad, I love your videos! You're videos with Greg reminds me of our old house on the Cape. When I was young, I found some bottle dumps deep in the back yard. If I only I realized what a treasure it could be.
yep, the worst is breaking them to pieces as kids not knowing what they were...sad😢
DDT was responsible for the decline of the Eagle. It made their egg shells thin and soft that they crushed their eggs when nesting.
That's not true. Ddt was banned by the epa right after Nixon signed the agency into existence. There were rumblings that the epa was unconstitutional. That only congress could make laws. So the epa merely called them regulations. They banned ddt because the patient had expired and knew no company would challenge the ban because there was no real profit in making and selling ddt, thus creating legal precedence.

Draconian federal anti poaching laws are what saved the bald eagle.
Anyone who has kept a back yard flock of chickens a little too long is very familiar with thin egg shells. The problem has nothing to do with ddt.
@@uptoolate2793 Well I actually grew up on a chicken farm called Metz now owned by umpqua and farmers pride - Bell and Evans.

Always such great videos. No bs just straight up passion for digging up history alongside loads of knowledge.
Love bottle dumps. The blue bottles & cork bottles are my favorite. The eye dropper bottle was a nice find.
Yaaay! I like Greg and the bottle digs. Really interesting stuff!

Yup, those little plates were butter pats. Johnson Brothers is an English pottery still active today. Love your videos!

Always inspiring going to dig later today. Thank you for the entertainment
When i was a kid we still had Jumbo Peanut butter in Ohio.
I will say, it was a lot better than what we have now.
Great day digging guys.
We had Jumbo peanut butter in Shreveport Louisiana when I was a young child too.
Find at 6:40 was a butter Pat. Used to hold butter by your plate. My wife has a huge collection of butter pats.
At one time they jumbo peanut butter was the most popular . They go back to turn of the century. Your darn Skippy.
Good Morning, My favorite was the peanut butter jar. Happy Hoiidays and Merry Christimas AND Happy New Year to you and your family.

I noticed heavy equipment to fill in the dig.
Hi from UK, looks like Spoon scauce 👋
the johnson brothers dish that from the comments seems to be for serving butter is a Hop print. the leaves, "flowers", and vine are all just like a young hops. super cool
At 6:20 possibly a tea spoon nesting bowl.
Great video, you might take a page out of Below the Plains and cut the outer two tines off of a potato fork if you guys get out there again next year.

I think the little dish is for butter. They used to serve individual butter pats at each place setting in those little plates.
Jumbo Peanut Butter is still on my list to find. That’s a cool jar, glad to see one in Vermont. That’s been a great dump, good age range.
HEY! Good morning Brad!
Great finds Brad. Where do you store all those bottles? Just curious.
Nice hunt! Keep it up
Great video-
Can you do a video on what equipment is needed for metal detecting? Some basic affordable detectors?
Thanks
I believe those little dishes are called “salts” by many. They were used to serve salt from at meals, often a rather tiny ceramic spoon accompanied them, they pre-date the salt shaker for the most part.
The small china dish is for a sugar spoon to set on after mixing your tea or coffee , the dimpled bottle was very cool.
Johnson Brothers is/was a major manufacturer of table china in the US. Depending on the design, could be valuable.
Kool dig ! Should have run metal detector over it. Sure there way to many bottle cap.😂
Brad please never smell anything you dig up…who knows what it is!
I worked with an infection control doctor who always said ”If you’re smelling it, you’re eating it” which is a horrible idea 😱
yea what if it was rat poision like in the latest hunger games.....
Just a quick little note on DDT - it is still able to be used in the US under certain circumstances as a disease vector and both the Stockholm convention and WHO recognize it's use for malaria control and leave it up to the individual country to determine use.
Yes.
Nice finds
The little porcelain flowered saucer with the 4 dimples maybe it was for putting the stire spoon on when after using it instead of putting it on the table or counter I dunno just a thought. 🤔
Frostilla was manufactured in Elmira, my home town, from 1893 to 1950
Is your idea of a full size shovel a backhoe behind you 😉
I thought the same thing. That’s one heck of a shovel!
I remember Jumbo peanut butter back in the 60's. We used to get it in a wide mouthed 3lb. Glass jar with the metal screw lid. Ours had a paper label with a circus elephant on it.
Cute lil salt dish.
doing a 1st here in Wisconsin..detecting in December
I've got an older faygo bottle and a Pepsi one with cap and a few old coke ones to along with some tiny clear bottles
Once in leadville Colorado we dug an 1880s privy, a coffin whisky flask got busted in the hole. It was full of 1880's urine! The whole block smelled so bad we had to rebury the hole 😅.small jugs with murcury from miners even a chemical burn from an uncorked bottle of caustic soda. Most of the old time bottle diggers I know ended up and are still dying from odd diseases later in life😢.
That little dish you found would that fit the Little dish lid you found in the last Video maybe they fit together?
Brad i was wondering if the small square tag you found could be one of them tags that they put on telephone poles back in the day??
It looks like an old time spoon holder for around the stove
Those Johnson brothers little dishes might be a salt dip. 😎
I’ve found that exact same Jumbo peanut butter jar! Except I live right across the river from Cincinnati. Not quite sure how it made it to Vermont.
