When I was around 9 the DPW Showed up to dig a big hole at the end of our dead end street.
What they ended up digging up were hundreds of OLD glass bottles.
Cobalt blue ones, green, clear..
All bottles that required a cork of some kind.

Us kids were thrilled over the mystery of it all.
We brought them home as decorations..

Most likely an Old dumping ground from way back when..

As a kid I had to pull a wire through the crawl space of the house next door (elderly relative, my dad was doing some wiring for her) and found an old linament bottle up near the front wall. I brought it out to her and she was so pleased. She slowly cleaned out the concretion inside it and displayed it.
