Wow thats cool! Its not worth much but a cool find. Its from the 1870's. The oldest thing I have found from white men was a tin of milk of magnisia tablets a bit smaller than those old sucrets tins and all rusted but you could still read the paper inside and there were still some crumbs in there. From the 20's if I recall. I'll look for it.

I found a few old cork whiskey bottles way back in the blue wilderness. It seemed like every peak a mile back has old bottles and cans from the old time deer hunters. I'm not sure they were sober or just warming up a little.

I'm reading a great book on snake oil and salesman called 'Charlaton.'

People are saps ingesting those unknown substances.

 

If any one is curious if they are gullible, send me a dollar for quick answer.

Edge....you know we all ingest substances even today that go beyond the common sense level of thinking.

I mean the bottle says blood purifier.......which was a round about the way of saying 90 proof right??? I still can't get over Medicinal Marijuana....crap didn't even know how to spell that....

 

I will have to dig up a couple of the cans I have found down in the Blue as well......when I find the one I will post a pic.
