We find RARE Historic Treasure while searching in a 120 year old City Dump!!
This week Randy and I head southward to find a rumored dump site from over 120 years ago. After a little detective work and then recon we find exactly what we were looking for.... Antique bottles and relics that could be worth thousands of dollars!!

It still cracks me up the amount of comments I get with people saying that I don’t dig that I just watch…… believe it or not it’s next to impossible to dig with a shovel and hold a GoPro and get decent footage. I do at least 50% of all the digging and film. Adventure Archaeology is my channel and I keep the revenue from it therefore I do not expect my friends and fellow diggers to film me while I dig. Occasionally if they offer I get on the camera while digging the rest of the time I would need a tripod and it’s not practical to carry around with me as we are usually in rough terrain. This is a hobby for all of us but for me it’s a side business as well that helps support my family. My crew enjoys digging not film making. I hope this explains something that I thought was common sense but I would be lying if I said it wasn’t frustrating to continuously get critiqued for being Lazy or a freeloader. You can ask anyone who has ever dug with me and they will tell you. I sling dirt with the best of them, film/edit and usually let the guys ride with me to locations. Ok I’m off my soap box 😅

Dont know if anybody yet mentioned it but oyster shells were often used to descale pots,pans and kettles from the build-up of limescale on inner surfaces due to the amount of limescale in 'hard' water areas.Certainly happened here in the UK at least.

@@adventurearchaeology Just back from "Up the valley". The collapsed 1897 hydropower plant has been cleared away, probably by the City & County of Honolulu, whom have title of it since 1965 when the seized all water development from the Capital Investment Co. (Chinn Ho) whom bought out the Waianae Plantation Co, in 1947. Chinn Ho gave his name to a recurring villain on Hawaii 5-0, but his dreams of Waikiki II out here never panned out. I need to get an early start on and go up the hill again. I saw some potential for where the power plant superintendent's home was. It powered water pumps throughout the valley, as water supply was a recurring problem for the plantation. Something called a Pelton water wheel was hooked up to G.E. dynamos generating at least 600V. I first explored it in 1992 and the dynamos had already been stolen for copper. The steel plates had been thrown around like Ninja stars and stuck in the high beams.

The squat beer is a malt extract. They almost always come in that fat squatty shape. There are several embossed ones from all over the U.S. The little green blob wine is a little seltzer or mineral water. I have had four or five of those bottles with labels on them. They could also have been a general use bottle for many different types of drinks. Always loved those Crane extract bottles. Great stuff! Hope you go back, looks like a promising spot!

oh how cool! i’m from the buffalo ny area and larkin company was a mail order catalog company back 120 years ago. started out with bar soap and branched out into other things, like furniture for one. think modern day Sears and Roebuck. their building was designed and built by Frank Lloyd Wright. the company owner, Darwin Martin had a few homes designed and built by FLW. they were long time friends. really cool history and stories about them both. Sadly, the Larkin building was demo’d, i think in the 1950’s.

Glycol-Thymoline dates back to the late 1800’s, when it was advertised as: An alkaline, antiseptic, non-irritating, cleaning solution for the treatment of diseased mucous membrane, especially nasal catarrh. The preparation had its roots with Oscar Kress, who, according to his January 3, 1895 obituary in the Pharmaceutical Record, was born in Germany and immigrated to the United States after graduating from the University of Munich. A medical paper entitled “Chronic Nasal Catarrh and what the General Practitioner Can Do for it,” presented in May, 1893, mentioned that Kress introduced Glyco-Thymoline to the medical profession around that time. Glycolic-thymoline is a preparation recently introduced to the profession by Mr. Oscar Kress, a pharmacist of this city. It is composed of glycerine (fat glycerine from slaughtered livestock hides), thymol (say thyme oil - like thymol listerine taste), sodium, borax, benzoin (incense with sweet vanillin flavor), salicylic acid (say willow bark aspirin), eucalyptol (eucalyptus oil), menthol (mint oil), gaultheria (american wintergreen with aspirin properties - say Ben-Gay smell), oleum pini pumillonia (dwarf pine oil, yeah pine sol !), and solvents, in proper proportions. Kress dies in 1894, and Samuel Owens associated with Kress becomes new owner and incorporates as Kress and Owens and continues manufacturing into the early 1900s. Product still manufactured today as a dental antiseptic and mouthwash solution.
