Digging In A Bottle Dump

Ойын-сауық

Join me on a short journey to dig bottles and other treasures at an old municipal bottle dump. I find a few neat specimens to add to my collection and also stumble across a couple abandoned homeless camps.

    You are living the dream , I myself also truly enjoy the hobby of bottle and relic hunting. Up here in Ontario Canada, there's a small village called Paris and I've been quite lucky hunting there . I've found a beautiful green crackle cream server as well as an ink bottle from the 1700s. I'll be heading back there this summer to continue my search . I also 100% agree with your views on people throwing their garbage bags and junk into the woods, it pees me off as well . Considering that we have garbage transfer stations and dumps available these days . once again I'm happy I subscribed to your channel and quite enjoy your personality and your videos .Best regards from Lloyd way up here in the north . ( not really! I'm just across the New York border ).have a great day eh!

    It is one of my favorite pastimes, bottle digging.You I've also found a lot of abandoned camps like that. Some of the clothing was clean,so I launder it and donate it to charity rather than just watch it go to waste. And , some of it I wear! In my size! I once found several good cans of Alaska smoked salmon! Yum!

    I remember 25 years ago in central North Carolina digging bottles from an old house back in the woods. The latest bottles were from the 40's and we dug quite a few dating back to the 1870's and 1880's. I doubt such sites are as common today.

    The purple coloring you are describing is called sca or Sun colored amethyst. It has to do with magnesium in the glass. When exposed to uv rays from the sun, it starts getting a Smokey color.... continues on until very deep purple. You can irradiate them to speed process!

    Aquachigger, when going through these old dump sites keep in mind stirring up dust. There is a high chance that asbestos is mix in. Although when it comes to asbestos, it isn't short exposure that is bad, it is prolonged exposure.

    Nice video Aquachigger, That 1923 Coca-cola bottle was starting to be made by the date, until the next patent date. I think it was 1926 or 1929. So that was a good Coca-cola bottle find. The ones in the late 30's and all dates after 1939, weren't showing the patent dates like that. They had a weird number in the middle of the dates of numbers and letters,, Like 55, was on there for some reason, even on the 30's and 40's ones. Nice find!

    Finding bottles during the summer sucks balls; best time is the winter. Anyways, I wish I could have dug in the 60s and 70s when all the town and city bottle dumps were undug. I can't tell you how many town dumps Ive found and privies just to find they've already been dug. Guess I need to go to southern WV and middle of nowhere areas where people just do heroin and don't care about bottles. Most of the stuff has been dug up already here in Pittsburgh. Found one good dump this year but it was around 1915 era. Half machine made and half hand tooled. Every dump or dig Ive found has been 1890s-1960s. All the good pontil glass is long dug around here or under cement. However, Im pretty sure I found some virgin 1870s-90s bottle dumps today along a river bank. Dug for about ten min and a bunch of 1880s bottle shards came out of the dirt and a nice intact but tiny sample bottle of Rubifoam, but it was getting dark by the time I found the dump. Going back tomorrow, fingers crossed.

    You're missing the top and bottom metal half shells for that Lightning Arrestor, if you had both with a name plate from Westinghouse they go for up to as much as $200. Joseph Slepin helped improve them, he died in Dec 1969 was born in the late 1800s. He worked at Westinghouse for 40 years improving Lightning Arrestors, Fuse Boxes, etc.. They handled I believe 12kv of energy, similar to what you got in states back east for your roof top in case lightning struck. The Benjamin Franklin family still sells them to residents for protection. When I was in PA we had lightning all the time on hot summer nights and they always were hitting your backyard or taking out another tree on your property.
