Re: Recent MI bottle additions

Found this Kerns cream of michigan bottle on Facebook marketplace Saturday and it was delivered yesterday.

1933-1934 era. I don't think this brewery survived very long after prohibition.
Probably one of my better bottles now.

First time going to this show and had to pass up overtime to make it. Here's some mediocre pics. Picked up the bottles at the Maumee antique mall. Tip tip is from Ohio and will be in my sale totes. Sebewaing is original unlike my current one with a NOS printed label. And honestly I'm more excited ab...

Here's most of the clean cans. Got a few more of each pictured uncleaned still.

Best black label will be an upgrade.
Might keep the yellow Drewrys as an upgrade if it straightens out.

The prewar cans were fox deluxe Chicago, ribbon less pabst and a Milwaukee club

Re: Recent MI bottle additions

Forgot about this one, was delivered while dumping Saturday.

Very early post pro, notice the odd 15oz content statement on a weird bottle. Assuming this was due to a bottle shortage right after prohibition.

Re: Recent MI bottle additions

Cherry picked a collection that was in an abandoned farm house. Absolutely killer long lost collection with 100s of bottles mostly from michigan.
The Goebel is from Muskegon had my eye on that one for awhile.

Re: 3-2-24

Nice Ted, great time to be out. So I take it that the ground is not frozen. Good condition for cans in that type of sand. That soil usually leads to the crusty schmutzy type rust. Ground was frozen in many spots. Mostly shade areas which made searching pretty difficult slip and fall wise. I don't l...

First trip of 2024. We rehit a few areas and found some new ones. Only highlights are a camping area absolutely loaded with several larger 50s pits and finding a good sized 30s dump after the logging company came through. 20240302_113117.jpg 20240302_115019.jpg 20240302_121415.jpg 20240302_121428.jp...

Driving down a back road and found an abandoned ww2 era ship. Looked around inside and found OD GR fox deluxe OIs and OD goebels tucked in a void in what would've been the kitchen area.

Jon Aho would be my choice. For years he has opened his home up as a base camp for dumping. The only time I was able to attend, he was able to say, "pull over, I saw something." He had some ideas on where to dump, but in transit he would find more places to find cans. One of the nicest gu...
