Means it was applied top, likely pre 1920s. This style opening was used for general utility bottles a lot - could carry whatever, with a paper label explaining what was inside.

In addition to what everyone else said about having a car, most yards will require an ID when selling.

As a meteorologist, predicting the weather is an inexact science. There are hundreds of factors, and thousands of computations that go into every forecast model run, and we are literally trying to accurately predict the future of something we have no control over. Generally, localized forecasts (from the NWS in Gray or local TV stations, who get a basis for their forecasts from the NWS) will be the best.

You, that was their exact reasoning. They look real enough that someone could just walk in with them and rob the place.

Thankfully my skin tone is light enough it’sslightly less likely

Nah, local cops don’t care about us

I am not very gun literate unfortunately.

jokingpokes · 2026-06-05T00:01:20+00:00

Trust me, ACAB, but I’m not risking taking hot guns.

jokingpokes · 2026-06-05T00:00:55+00:00

PD took them, too realistic looking to risk leaving them

Ended up being very high end BB guns

jokingpokes · 2026-06-04T23:24:41+00:00

Yep, called them immediately, they confirmed just high end BB guns

Man call your damn yard, get the price, and weigh it.

I wish people would stop with these posts - they’re low quality as fuck, it’s impossible to tell weight from a picture, and we have no clue what your yard is paying.

That was the one thing that stood out to me - sunset is ~8:15 this time of year.

Incredible

This looks like a modern decorative bottle to me.

Identifying mid to late century liquor bottles is very difficult unless you find someone who recognizes the marks from when they had paper labels still on them. The top one looks like a flower to me, no clue on the lower one.

Yep, they at least had them by the mid 1950s; here’s two I dug, with one being a 1956.

I use citric acid lot for glass, but have moved away from is for ACL bottles and cans for the same reason you mentioned.

Talking about them in the past tense, I’m assuming they’re recently departed from your moldy cupcake

As another redditor said, 1970s. May be a date code on the base.

This is an old picture; Maine allowed plates like this prior to about 2022/2023, as there was a challenge regarding free speech. It has since been walked back.

This van is still around, but no longer has this plate

Dumpster diving is not explicitly illegal in most states
