The Borden bottle is pre-1936. That's the year that Elsie and several other cows became the mascots for Borden, including Blossom, Bessie, and Clara. Within a short time, Elsie was the publics favorite cow of Borden. My Grandmother, born in 1907, was named Bessie, when my Mother was born in 1941, she was named Elsie, after the Borden cow. Elsie the cow is still the mascot to Borden. On a side note, Elsie's "husband" was Elmer. You might know him better as the cow on Elmer's glue.

Hey folks, thanks for watching today’s video! If you’ve come to the comments to express a complaint with the title- I understand your disappointment if you clicked with the hopes of seeing decomposing human remains and were presented only the ‘body’ of a porcelain doll- that WOULD be frustrating. I hope though, while you were here, you enjoyed yourself- And rest assured my weekly videos will continue to be as high-quality, educational and entertaining as possible- regardless of title and thumbnail. Have a great day!

I hope you were able to check the cologne bottle for a scent, I found a perfume in a 1870’s dump with a stopper and when I open it you can still smell it! It’s crazy it smells just like grandma 😂

The two of you make a great team...hope there are more dump expeditions in your futures.

The item at 11:45 is a stamp/embosser for documents. I have one from the early 1900's from a local 'society' on my shelf right now. Great finds Brad!!

Quarter Hoarder Jason did his Giveaway Live Stream tonight with 1,200 viewers. They mentioned you as did hundreds of the viewers, all good. 1:57 Salt Glazed Stoneware Ink Pot. The ink came in it, you removed the cork, dipped the pen and wrote after carefully wiping the excess ink on the inner edge. 12:38. The pocket knife brand is 'Old Timer'.

Great video! The little brown croc is a ink bottle. Otherwise known as a "Pork Pie". The cobalt blue ink is stunning. There are a couple of UK youtubers I watch that are mudlarks and are really amazing. Alot of what you were pulling out and can be connected back to England. One is Dirty Secrets of Scotland, his name is Willy Scott. He digs lots of bottles, metal detects, and forages. He gives wonderful backgrounds on the bottles he finds. The Northern Mudlarks also are just as fantastic.

Am I the only one wanting a background story on Greg’s tattoos??? Really enjoy your videos Brad! Stay awesome!

I love the fact that you are back for a 3rd visit, it is such a fab place and I love all the different bottles and finds here. I hope you both do more here in the future :)

Yes. At 12:00, it's a paper letter press. We had one growing up from our grandfather's house. Should clean up to reveal the seal art.

Borden was one of the drive around type of milkman companies we used when I was a kid in the midwest.. Elsie was their logo cow. They left glass bottles on the porch in a metal milk box. Ours were half gallons and without the top fat cream area. They had both an inner cardboard w/ pull tab disc and an outer celluloid sort of cap that snapped on. Our grade school used both as counters for learning math in the primary grades. Forgetting to bring the milk in, could result in finding frozen bottles the next morning. If you were lucky, the 2 caps had pushed upward on a column of frozen milk. Unlucky mornings were those where the milk had frozen over night and those big bottles had broken. Suddenly you needed to dispose of shards of glass mixed into a large quantity of, for the moment, frozen milk. Not a good thing!

Small bottle with metal twist lid and MCC is probably a McCormick extract bottle, like vanilla. What a fun dig!

Notary stamp. How awesome!

Hehe good prank Brad. 6:07 for the “body”

Your enthusiasm and passion is a welcome Friday morning, welcome to GMMD Greg

@GMMD I’ve got a confession that I hope you don’t find too creepy. I love watching your videos for a lot of reasons. I enjoy the finds, the history and the scenery. But mostly I watch because you remind me of my son Matt. Y’all are almost doppelgängers. Your mannerisms, how you express yourself, the things you take joy in, and you look alike to a point. He’s 1600 miles away and today is his birthday. I’d love to see a video of your collection of finds. Maybe you’ve done one but I’ve not seen it.

Great day at the dump, some great finds. Not to mention spoiling how other dumps may not give up as much as this one.

First find: High fired salt glazed ink well. Looks amazing!!! 🌞

I live in Oklahoma and we still have Borden Dairy Products available! I love seeing that bottle!

Some great old stuff coming out ! Awesome location 👍👍

Penny ink, or pork pie ink well! I love them!❤

I believe the doll that you found is what is known as a "frozen Charlotte", because they have no moveable joints and have been around since the mid 1800's. They were usually baked into cakes or were a favorite bath time toy. Nice finds!!

The brown earthen ware bottle is an “ink” for sure. Here in UK mudlarks on the Thames call them pork pie bottles cos they resemble pork pies! Enjoy all your videos, thank you

I use to go dump digging as a kid with my brothers. Still several items including a toy wind up rabbit that I put out every Easter. Loved watching this. Thank you!!❤

Wingsandbeaks here. ~ Brad Martin! Where are your gloves?! No, you’re doing fine. Last bottle video, you got a huge amber bottle, not a crock, but a beauty, anyway. First grab today was a perfect ceramic container, not huge, but lovely, just the same. Beautiful blue ink bottle. Greg seems a great guy. How nice for him to share that stash. Hah! I knew you needed gloves 😂.

The small ceramic vessel you found at the beginning is indeed an inkwell, the small white vessel is a marmalade jar, and I believe the little broken figurine you found might be a Frozen Charlotte. I learned about a lot of these items by watching videos by Mudlarkers from England. There's a lot of fun history to uncover about the Frozen Charlotte in particular :)

Yay love Greg's bottle dump!!!

A great bit of Treasure Hunting !!! Awesome Fun !!.

White ceramic disk possibly is the insert for a lid on a blue ball jar. Lids where metal with a white insert.

I believe it's called a pork pie ink, watch some of the mudlarkers in London, any in those areas. Loved all of your finds.

Bottle digging is always fun, its like a box of chocolates...........

Love it! Thank you! Hey, maybe show off your finds on a snow day? You’ve found some amazing things that you get to save and I was thinking it would be a great idea to showcase them to all your viewers?

Why stop at a trilogy when your viewers are clearly enjoying your adventures digging with Greg? Loved the finds on this video.

40 or so years ago I found a bottle dump in Louisiana while working on an old home site and it was still exposed. I did not gather many bottles but? I was an Orange Crush drinker and I found a brown orange crush bottle that was ribbed horizontally and still had the painted lettering on the side of it. I carried that and about 30 other bottles around for all of these years and a few years ago I gave them all to my son that lives in north Idaho. I hated to get rid of it but I also know that my son will probably keep it tilll he hands it off to my Grand Daughter. I have only found one other bottle dump in my lifetime and it was on private property here in east Texas and will not ever be allowed to dig it. I am so adicted to looking for them. Have a Great day and a better Tomorrow...

We dug some great thing and had a fun time doing it! There is still some places left to dig. Hoping for next summer!

Wow, what an amazing haul for a day of digging! That's incredible! What fun! Thanks for sharing, Brad!

I started out bottle digging and moved on to metal detecting...both are so much fun...I've been sitting here chuckling because I have been identifying your finds as they have been coming out of the ground...a sign that I have dug a crazy amount of trash dumps...I absolutely love your site...and as a musician myself...your music 🎶. Thanks Brad...All the best to you and yours . MERRY CHRISTMAS

My dad and I would dig bottles when I was very young. The greatest find was a very old bottle that looked like a light bulb..it was most likely an extremely old wine bottle. This brings back so many memories!

Love it when you and Gregg go digging 😊

The desk item is a Notary stamp. More importantly, WHERE ARE YOUR GLOVES?

the doll you found is called a Frozen Charlotte or also called a Penny doll. They had no joints and were made from about 1850 to 1920.

i to got into bottle digging while metal detecting. It's a wicked joy digging antique bottles. Thanks. Bottle in the hole

I just love these glass and pottery finds! I’m always intrigued because they are always accidental finds since there is no such thing as a “glass detector”

So much fun to watch! Thank you to you both!

For those that don't know that Mason jar lid is glass. Would have had a wire bail attached to the jar to go over the top to hold the lid on. I have a couple.

Thank you Greg!

I love these dump digging series, awesome finds Brad!

Some nice old bottles coming make lovely displays

It's always a pleasure to spend a morning finding stuff with you, Brad.

Catching up on your videos! Great to see Buffalo NY get some mention! The Larkin company was huge here! The whole area around the original Larkin building has transformed into a cool summer hang out area called Larkin Square. Food truck Tuesday's, weekly music, some breweries and distilleries in repurposed buildings. Great to see revival! I have several Larkin items including a desk my Grandfather got for selling Larking products. You could sell items and get stamps or coupons to turn in for prizes!

Thanks for sharing with Brad, Greg. Good day 😎👍🏼

Very cool finds! I hope you and Greg do more, I love seeing what you find in there.

Thanks for sharing your bottle digging adventure.

Awesome day out there finding bottles love the history of your fines stay blessed and see you again on the next episode ☃️🎅👍

it is notary seal they look the same today - The notary seal is used to transfer authentication or official recognition by the Notary Public to the document with the Notary's signature

I started bottle hunting after you shared Antique Archaeology. And Brandon. If you have any questions about bottles he is the person to asked. I've been doing it for two years now and I love it. Been a fan of yours for 5 years now. Love to the family 🌼.

I grew up in the sixties, and we had an insulated metal box on our porch where milk orders were placed, and orders left for the milkman. Borden’s was one milk delivery service, we got ours from a dairy local to our state. I still have that box.

Not a rivet setting tool but a stationary embossing tool. Many were used by public notaries and or courts, townships, businesses etc to emboss on official paperwork to authenticate it.

Brad, A nice departure from your standard "dig", but fun. Thank you both for a really entertaining time!. I bet your son would have been fascinated:) Cheers, Rik

Excellent video! I would have been in Heaven digging up those beautiful bottles ❤

So cool to see a younger, older guy friendship!

I think the canning jar lid was to a snap ring top jar. That's a gorgeous milk bottle! I would take a brick trawl with me on those digs. That and a really good brush are what archeologists use. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!

The Listerine bottle may be a salesman’s sample bottle. Also, the desk top find was probably a stamp tool to emboss the person’s name or initials on an envelope or letter. Excellent finds guys!

Dump digging is the best! I used to do it with a buddy of mine in MI. It’s been many many years.

i might have told on here before but we used to dig in our creek bank. only about 1-200 feet from the house. i found a cobalt blue three-sided bottle in the mud once it had 2 flat sides and one rounded side. i figure the rounded side was for a paper label as it was smooth. the other 2 sides were embossed w/ LAXOL. i found it in a repro sears catalog from 1908. which is a good way to date some things. if you dont have one already you should get one. bookstores carry all different time periods of them. we figured out the flat sides were meant to be sidled up against 2 other bottles for a display on the countertop so the labels would show. i also have 2 or 3 bromo seltzer and phillips bottle as well. i love cobalt blue.

The ink crock was really cool. Love all blue bottles & clear like the Larken Co & the one Greg found. Nice rivet setter. The Bordens bottle was a great find. Bottle dumps are so much fun & surprising.

Morning Brad & Greg, I agree your first find was a vintage ink well..

As a child we drank Bordens Milk. Elsie the cow was kind of a mascot. Hadn’t thought of Bordens in many years. Your bottle brought it back to mind. Enjoyed.

Great finds for sure. I love that stone inkwell. Nicely done!👍👍👍

So many interesting items found. I love the Bordens milk bottle. You do know they still bottle milk today. I also really liked the small earthen ware bottle. I still think it’s an ink.

Some of the clear bottles will turn amethyst when kept in the sun... 🙏🏼🕊️🙏🏼 Crick diggers and Digger Dave are very well versed in bottle digging 👍👍👍💯

Good finds. Those inks are beautiful too

the round ceramic glazed on only one side piece is a tile, found many in bottle dumps of round, square and octagon shapes... maybe bathroom tile or from a kitchen

Hey Brad. Longtime subscriber. Yours is the only detecting site I watch anymore though I use to watch everybody's. You're genuine and sincere in your love of what you do. Just do me one favor. If you're going to continue digging bottle dumps, I hope you do, please invest in a plastic garden trowel for digging around the bottles. More efficient with minimal damage. Keep up the good work !

I consider myself click baited!!!! :) BTW I have some 17-1800s bottle dumps over at my end :) I'll save them for you.

I have a large fountain pen collection so to me those ink bottles are like finding gold. Awesome. Congratulations.

I believe that rivet set is really a seal stamp, we had one just like it you could place different seal plates on the top and bottom, used to put seals on paper.

Great finds and a good day for digging. the Mason jar lids might make a nice sun catcher project. just my thoughts. Thanks to the land owner for the opportunity. Happy holidays.

The small brown stoneware is called a pork pie, I believe it is an ink. Nice bottles. Great finds! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have one of those from my grandfathers farm. I’m told it’s a riveting device. Mine is stamped 1909. Nice find.

I love your finds! I would love to go out and dig for treasure!keep up the videos...

I love watching bottle digging. The old bottles are very cool.

Love the bottle dig's, please keep it up, thanks

Another great video from you. I liked all the bottles you found.

The brown bottle you found at 4:19 minutes seems to have a small "silver mirror" in one of the bands. Silver was used as an antibiotic - when children were born, a silver nitrate (0.2 %) solution would be placed in the eyes to protect the newborn from certain infections they could pick up from the mother during birth. It is no longer used. However, if the bottle contained a solution which had silver nitrate in it, a "silver mirror" could form on the glass. This is also used to "silver" the insides of Christmas ornaments to make them shiny.

Love bottle digging used to do a lot of it when I was younger your stoneware ink is the find of the day 👍🦀

Did lot's of bottle digging in my younger years, and I still keep a look out when metal detecting as come across them often in old sites 😍 Great bunch of finds, HH and take care.

I think the bottle with the metal screw top was McC for " McCormick" .

Awesome dump Brad! My family and I found many old bottles in western Washington state. Loved doing it!

Oh, my Gosh!!! That is an embossing stamp you found there at 11:37. My mama had one when she was a member of the laundry workers union here back in the 50s-60s. We used to play with it all the time.

I have seen some mudlarking lady's find the small clay ink bottles. They say sometimes you can see the fingerprints from the maker on them. I have a few Borden bottles but from an antique store. My Grandpa used his gi bill for college to become a dairy specialist. Moved to Fort Wayne Indiana to help run the big Borden plant here. It closed down in the late 1980s (don't quote me on that). He met his second wife there and my uncle worked there. Fast forward to when Edy's ice cream bought and remodeled the plant. Me and my brother worked there. Great finds as usual.

Interesting a Mason jar lid with a nights templar cross on it...

Better check that carnival glass with a Geiger counter. 😉 The stoneware ink well is a beautiful piece 👍

Wow, first thing, an awesome inkwell!! Congrats :)

I have a client similar to you. He is incarcerated and he has a special sence of humor I understand. Sometimes it makes me sad my client will complete the program and EOS back where he came from, or, hopefully, someplace new where he can start over an honest man.

Grew up with Elsie the Cow on the Borden's Condensed Milk Cans. Still available with Elsie on the label under the name Eagle Brand. Condensed Milk was a game changer in the mid to late 1800's as it allowed for longer shelf life and did not require refrigeration to transport. I also remember Borden's ice Cream. (Yummy!) The company became known as Borden's pre-1920's. Prior to that it was the NY Condensed Milk Company. 🐮

Excellent dig guys. VERY cool milk bottle! Such a great location. Congrats on the finds!! All the best!

That mechanical piece that you found looks like a stamp that they use at the notary to crimp the paper 👍👍👍😁

Phillips Milk of Magnesia, still made today. Had an old one and gave it to my phacrmacist for her collection. Love the blue inkwell. I love any blue bottles. Another pretty blue bottle, bromo seltzer! Cool! Borden still makes Eagle Brand condensed milk. That doodad might be for attaching an official seal to papers, like a notary or judicial seal.

Cool finds fam. Keep on having fun and living the dream. Gold Squad Out!!!
