<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MR Treasure Hunter, post: 854423, member: 11626&quot;]My finds from today... I went back to the tip in the hopes of digging some more unusual collectable items like that glass tile I dug a while ago... I got myself a few nice bits I dug lots of stuff but could only take so much as the bags were getting very heavy, thankfully I this landfill permission is open to me as well as some other bottle diggers the stuff there is never ending and lots of areas still remain untouched. </p><p><br /></p><p>There were some really nice pieces I dug out like bits of printed stoneware ginger beer bottle and bits of stoneware flagon and also some bits that would have been very expensive items if there were whole, including what would have been a nice J. G. Green glass vase and bits of a green leaf Majolica chestnut dish 1850s era and bits of printed 1862 marmalade jars. Its always the good stuff that&#039;s broken.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a picture of the things I did bring home with me... </p><p>[ATTACH=full]196564[/ATTACH]</p><p>I dug an almost complete teapot, it has a missing spout and I plan on repairing this old teapot, the tile I almost didn&#039;t take but decided to take it at the last minute. I got a nice melted bottle I do like my melted bottles. I got a nice &quot;Not To Be Taken&quot; poison bottle, some old Marmite jars, some Vulcanite stoppers including some war grade stoppers and I got a couple American bottles &quot;California Fig Syrup&quot; which was popular in those days over here and the other American bottle being &quot;Slone&#039;s Liniment&quot; bottle 1940s - 50s and a nice complete stoneware foot warmer except I can not unscrew the cap I have tried many ways to try remove it but it seems to be fused on tight. I haven&#039;t finished cleaning my finds I just semi cleaned stuff so I can get photos posted on here tonight. </p><p><br /></p><p>I found this very nice honey jar too.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]196567[/ATTACH] </p><p>When I&#039;m out I always take home spare parts such as teapot lids and handles as I sometimes find things that are missing handle etc...</p><p>[ATTACH=full]196568[/ATTACH] </p><p>I also picked up a couple teapot spouts for the repair of the teapot I found...</p><p>[ATTACH=full]196569[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Here are a few more pictures of some of the other bottles I got today...</p><p>[ATTACH=full]196570[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]196571[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]196572[/ATTACH] </p><p>A small glass inkwell.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]196573[/ATTACH] </p><p>An OXO Jar which I&#039;ve not cleaned, it still has some of the label on, my plane is to match it for another one and stick it on the jar.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]196574[/ATTACH]</p><p>I also found this nice shallow sorta jar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
