Cod Liver Oil and Caster Oil worked pretty good too. My mom always had a bottle or 2 sitting around. Sure could get things moving in the right direction. |

It is an interesting arena that you can discuss bowel movements openly.
Where were forums when we were growing up?

Think I'd rather talk about old bottles and rocks.

I was hoping that idea would come up soon. It is a conversation that I could show my wife to make her worry about me.
Like get a young maid to take care of me LOL.

You asked for it. These first 4 are probably 1940's bottles. I'll post more later. These all came out of the old house I helped tear down.  Good heavens, does that cough medicine really say honey and TAR?  !!! And that Mrs. Stewart looks like a jolly soul doesn't she? She is just full of horse play. Thx Don. |

The mason was purchased. The purple was in a large pile my friend's friend found. Old Bud from Lake George by me probing at the old docks. Tampa from Tampa Bay whilst snorkeling for coral. The lake has post rotted just below water level. Visible at low water only. With easily 50 miles of shoreline posts to probe for bottles are everywhere.  That purple bottle is about the most purple I have seen outside of artificially irradiated. Beautiful bottles James. Gotta love the local history stuff! |

Jacksonville is famous for manganese sands. That's what you get with manganese.
About a mile south and 400 yards out in the lake where the 8 foot shelf falls
to 11 feet is about 30 posts supporting a shed and dock to receive shipments and mail.
Drayton Island is out in the lake and has deep shores. An old steamboat stop bottle
pros find late 1700/early 1800 bottles. Some very valuable.
The glass is 3-4 inches thick at another dock. But many whole bottles. All drinkers type
stuff. Gotta find the posts and their pattern to find the dock path.

Earlier on, I mistakenly called the Mrs. Stewart's bluing Mrs. Smith's. Sorry about that. It's been a while since I dug those old bottles out of storage. I have 3 of those bottles. All full, and 2 have complete labels.

I have looked at pricing on bottles w/out labels. With labels must be a whole different game.

The history is full and strategy was heavily involved.
