Another walk in the woods produces a few nice bottles and a KILLER milk.

With it being 68 degrees on a February 20 I had to get out in the woods again to look for, ahem, treasures before the Spring vegitation obscures them. Brought home a 1931 Borden's half pint, a local Scholl's half pint, a small milk glass bottle of unknown origin and a killer local quart milk with a wartime applied color label back, which probably only survived the elements because it was stuffed inside an old tin can.

Also saw the odd metal thing pictured in the last 3 photos (not the lamp base). Can anyone identify it?

I love that WWII milk bottle! Super find!

I think your metal parts there may be a water pump and agitator from an old washing machine. I'm no expert on the subject, but that's my guess.
 
I'm thinking the pointed metal thing is a lamp base. I could see a hardened rubber grommet where the ac cord came out and the top part is threaded just like many lamps. The base os about 7" in diameter.

The pump thing is pretty heavy for its' size. There's an impeller inside and the base has 4 holes to fasten it down to something. I left it at the dump site.
 
That little milk bottle is hilarious I've never seen one like that before, what a cool thing to find
