I said I'd post that tumbler and the perfume lotion bottle but the latter is submerged in a vinegar solution to clean it up. During my outing today I ran across this Big Boy Soda bottle sticking up out of the muck in the forest. Surprised me but I don't believe it's too old and may be a redo of an older patent (Patented April 12, 1927) during some promotion as I have to look up the manufacturers' code which is a square with the letter G in it. I have to do more research but bottles are a nightmare from what I've read.
And I did find more shotgun brass and a few other non important items but I thought I better start paying attention to glassware as I wandered through the woods. I have found glassware but almost all broken pieces which I think have no significance. No color to the pieces that I have found except that these two have a slight amber tint to them.
The tumbler was cleaned with plain old Ajax Dish Washing liquid and rinsed in vinegar but still needs a soak in vinegar to remove some haze. It'll make a nice bourbon on the rocks glass for the winter.
Have a great time and Happy Hunting you guys!!
