I like to see a video on how you clean these bottles!
And some display of the hauls after they’re clean
Totally agree…would be great
Me too! Also, do you keep the bottles? Or trade/sell/donate to museums. What makes a bottle valuable? Maybe just show highlights of the dig, and more time on what you do with the bottles. Thank you!
@Robin. If you don't know how to clean a bottle, you more than likely have a number of serious problems.
@@james1795 I just think it’d be another satisfying thing to see myself. And than to have them put on display to mention his favorites. 🤷♂️
fun fact - the Larkin factory is now a multi-use building in Buffalo with offices, event venues and more. When I lived there (pre pandemic) they also had food truck festivals each week. the whole neighborhood around the factory is called larkinville.
I live 15 minutes from Buffalo. They still have food truck thursdays! 🙂
My husbands dad worked for Rainier Brewery, from 70’s-90’s he did the piping for the brewery. He once said on their lunch break they drank beer! Crazy times
Love those stories. I’m in Olympia, WA, home of Rainier’s arch-rival Olympia Brewery.
Things that make you go hmmm..Pluto bottled Spring Water and then Household Chemicals. The days when you could have Arsenic, Strychnine or Cyandine next to Cinnamon and Allspice in your kitchen cabinet!
Amazing finds today! Please open an ETSY so I can have that Blue Ayers Hair Vigor bottle! LOL
Haha I loved the Rainer Beer commercials! It was a motorcycle shifting gears saying “raaaaaaaniiiiiiiiirrrrrrrr Beeeeeer….”
You guys should research the townsite of Indianola, TX. It was once the largest port city in Texas and was abandoned after being wiped out twice by hurricanes in the 1800s.
That was a good one, incredible bottles. Thanks for taking us along. I appreciate it. One question, do you sell any of these bottles 🍼
The other week I dug out the pit in my yard its wider than I went and I may go down again for more later, but I pulled 2 of those exact half pint full measure bottles out of the ground. Minnesota here.
Please make a video telling us how you can look at the grass and know where to dig. Love your channel.
I’m going to echo the sentiment of other comments. We’d love to see some of these cleaned and displayed
Who would have ever thought there would be treasure in an old outhouse pit!
I think people back then had brand loyalty just like we do today. If that bright blue bottle had a great-smelling cream in it the lady of the house would have treated herself to it again and again as long as it was available. The man of the house had no trouble treating himself to liquors! 😉 Both of you are doing a great job with your videos! 😊
Drank many a Rainier beer when I was much younger... really cool to find a trial-size bottle like that!
The color and clarity in this video. The reload. Is amazing. Second time watching this one.
"99 bottles of beer in the pit, 99 bottles of beer "....😂
Just as good as the last time! I’m in Olympia Washington- I’m still lovin’ that rainier bottle!!
Hello 👋. I love watching your videos!! When you probe the ground how do you know when you find a good spot to dig? Thank you so much 😊
What some amazing finds ! Always blows me away how much cool glass and stoneware are just beneath our feet , well in an older area , thank you for sharing !
I Love Jay’s excitement over the pen, this one was fun! Can’t wait for the next!
Finding that stopper is half the battle with those Ayers Hair Vigors
Yankton has been a great place to dig for you. I look forward to your next video.
my grandparents and my next door neighbors had outhouses-post prohibition and depression there weren't cool bottles or anything other than a little bit of old paper-(I looked)- they were all so frugal and never drank so any and all bottles and jars were reused until they broke-my grandparents lived in a 1800's house that eventually burned down and my neighbors home was demolished a few years ago-it's sad we have forgotten so much recent history-Thank you Jake and Tom for sharing with us-side note-Jake you have seriously great hair!
@Missangie827, If that house dated back to the 1800s there would have been outhouse(s) on the property for many, many years long before you were born, and all kinds of stuff could have been thrown into them or lost in them for many decades.... if you meant that you "looked through the hole" and saw nothing but some toilet paper, that doesn't mean there wasn't other stuff that had sank down and buried out of sight years ago, not to mention many years of stuff before then. Some houses had 2 or 3 or even more outhouses over a 100-year period. Some outhouse pits can be as deep as 10 feet or even much deeper, depending on area of the country and the individual wants / needs of the persons who built the house or lived in it. There are probably items buried several feet down in the ground where that outhouse used to stand!!
You guys hit on a mother load...I love the blue hair tonic bottles...and the little poison bottle...love the videos...keep on digging...🥰
Thank you so much, I enjoy watching you dig😅
Great dig! Thank you for working the site this time with a wooden probe instead of the metal hand spade. My ears thank you as well.
Intact oil lamp!!! Great find!
Quill pen - awesome find !!!
What a haul!
Those gloves are the same gloves i use to use for years working and welding lol, alot of memories in those gloves lol👍
Thank you
Lots and lots of bottles in that pit. The sample size beer bottle was really cool as well as the aqua cold cream jars.
How do you find these spots? And why aren't you using metal detectors? Thanks :)
It amazes me the intact bottles you find; esp. being over 100 years old.
Echo the others: would love to see your collections and displays.
Loving these videos mate, please keep them coming!
Im near Yankton and have a hole i have pulled many whisky bottles digging post hole. Never figured someone would dig it up for entertainment.
some good digging thanks
Love the turquoise cold cream bottle!
You should do a video of your collection
Really nice dig
These folks were doing a serious amount of drinking. LOL. Amazing that most of the bottles were in good condition.
Another great video Keith. Good work up love watching you guys.
Who is Keith?
Beer and whiskey always take the "most abundant" prize. What that tells me is they liked to party but also just miserable and rough back then. A bit of nip to take away the stress.
These video's are really interesting, thumbs up, thanks for bringing us along 😀
Wow, absolutely very good dig, ❤️ your videos.
Great dig as usual.
Great dig!
Great dig! Though I have to admit, I worry a bit when I see you handling those poison bottles barehanded. I know they have been buried for over 100 years, but I am a bit paranoid about those kind of things. 😅
Its not truly poison like cyanide, but poison to drink.
Boy Tom you made an awesome haul on those old pretty bottles.lots of cool ones. Love your videos. Always waiting for the next one
I would love an ayers bottle, wow what a haul
Awesome finds!
Keep up the great work that was quite enjoyable Thanks for all you do
I love your channel and your knowledgeable content. Thank you ❤
Awesome haul of finds 👍🙏❤️
I like the fact that every bottle is special to you! Good dig!
Tremendous haul!
Absolutely love the new coloring technique❤ you can certainly see the bottles much better❗
Amazing how perfect some of these bottles and jars are😮used to make them well then 😅
Wow to see something from here in Indiana out there. French luck is about an hour away from my home
Freaking poison bottle! Always wanted to find one. Nice one guys. 😁
What an assortments of bottles and crockery. Numerous ones with the stoppers, so unusual. Great job guys!
Wow! You have a talent for finding great spots, that little bottle was cool af! Nice to see your helper digging for once and getting in to it👍
Love the Iron stone picture
I have some of those Pluto bottles that we found here in Nevada.
Can’t believe you found china pieces in tack. The chicken bones got me. Thought they would crumble up
you should do a live dig event.. that would be cool to see the whole digging process. Thanks for the content. love it
I'm amazed how you find these pits and how many bottles came out.congrats
So I wonder how many holes get dug and nothing is found? I just found this channel and find it very interesting and fun to watch.🙂
Some were so decorative. Wow a tea pot that is whole without any chips, but no lid 😢
I am impressed not only you Tom and Jake have made a huge hall but the hall has provided you with some great pieces. Jake my heart is full of appreciation for your daybue and you even started the video and we even had the privilege of your conversation and opinions which (unfortunately) made the video flyby with pleasure and the new camera gives an outstandingly clear picture of what you and Tom are doing. It was a wonderful day for me, so thanking you two with a smile and lots of love. Afriend. 😊
Another great dig guys. Tom you ever show off your bottle collection?
It's interesting to try to take yourself back in time, say there was a boarding house there and men would use their empty beer or whiskey bottles to relieve themselves. Honestly, say it's winter and wake up in the middle of the night and just have to pee and don't want to go out into the cold night to use the outhouse. Who wants to carry a big chamber pot out to empty if it wasn't a #2. I get up once a night to take a leak at least. Maybe that's why some different ages are found at the same levels in the pit. Use your imagination and try to think what it would have been like back then without indoor toilets.
If your happy that's all that matters x
Are machine made bottles even worth anything? Ive found a honey hole of an old dump filled with them
Love the show just wondering if you guys metel detect the dirt spoils ??
I’m curious what you do with all the bottles. You must have unearthed over 6K bottles. Would love to see a collection display.
I think he sells them. They go for good money.
@@thecan2846that was my assumption. Wondering if he sells them online or at a shop or if he travels to bottle shows.
@@One-Eyed-Willys-Rich-Stuff they have mentioned in the comments they keep some, but most of them go to local museums or historical societies.
@@stubstoo6331 Thank you! I just left a comment asking what they do with the bottles. I bet they sell some though to fund their hobby.
I'm new here, and you've probably already answered this, but what do you do with these finds after you dig them up? Can you do a video where you show the cleaning process and discuss what happens next?
Is a pit any depression in the grass? Are most of these garbage pits, fire pits or outhouses? Do you get a metal detector out to check for coins and jewelry?
I wonder what these people would think if they knew someone in the future was going to dig up their pits. Would they have more or less stuff in them? Curious lol cause they sure were some drinkers back then. Have a great day
Are all of your digs in previous Out houses ? Other than bottles and porcelain have you found coins or other metal items ?
Have you ever tried to plant any of those seeds. They would be of plants and vegetables that early kinds that they dont have any more they have been modified so much that the old types are gone and some are bug resistant without fertilizer
I was waiting to see the secret chamber mentioned in the title??? All I saw was a massive ground being dug up !
Wallbaum drug store was operating into the late 60s early seventies. Had a soda fountain and had many a cherry coke there.
you have found the Holy grail. peacock blue Ayres.
How many ounces were in the bee bottles back then? They look huge! Thanks
Fantastic colors!!😍😍😍 Great dig. Thank you both!😍😍❤
I want to do this so badly
I watched one guy who takes bottles with broken tops and made drinking glasses out of them.
Would someone tell me about the extract. I only know about the small bottles vanilla, lemon that sort of thing from the grocery store? I enjoy watching these videos. 👍🏼
I can not as important to u but I like to see the shards of pottery, ceramic dishes.
I noticed something missing from this haul -- there are no ketchup bottles. So used to seeing you pulling up ketchup bottles from home sites that it seemed odd that you didn't find any here.
Do you ever sale what you find?
What did they use poison for? Cool video.
Not easy digging by hand unless you do it constantly.
Jordy, ohhhh gosh how we learn with you! I don’t know but should a person stay with a lighter color to have a better chance for the sou-sougi to show. I think my hopes fell with yours and like you said you can’t hit a thousand all the time but champ you took like a pro. Can the use of a solvent or stripper remove the job to try a retry to the finish? ❤
What do you do with the stuff you find?
Those beer bottles look bigger than today's. Are they?
You think all those liquor bottles might have something to do with the lantern being in the outhouse?
What do y’all do with every thing that y’all find
What happens with all the bottles you find?
