Back in the 1960s and 1970s many people found antique bottles in dumps, behind old farmhouses or in town dumps. Just like most of the parks, schools, and beaches have been hunted, most of the dumps have been dug and the days of easy digging are gone. Or are they? Easily as many bottles as have been found and probably many times more, still lie buried. Where are most of these bottles? They are in the privies (or outhouses) of the 19th century buried in backyards and places you might never think to look. This is a helpful guide for any bottle collector, as well providing interesting information on how and where to dig for the best bottle finds.
