I love stories like this. So cool to find historical stuff lying right under our feet.
Best place to find stuff (outside of old privy sites that people let you dig) is old garbage dumps. __________________ |

Ahh, the good old days of bottle hunting in San Francisco.
Ron, have you met Warren Whited? He is one of those lucky ones that participated in the Golden days of San Francisco bottle hunting (mid 1960s to late 1970s). He made some incredible finds, including the digging of the goldship Niantic. ![]() It truly was a golden age. Not the least because archeologists, detectorists and bottle hunters were all united in the cause of finding and saving the artifacts that where found there. Check his site out. http://waipahuhaole1.tripod.com/SanFrancisco.html __________________ |

Thanks for the link Rudy! Several of my friends were into bottle hunting back then and I heard stories. Wish I gotten the detecting bug sooner!!
