Digging for Treasure: A Guide to Finding Valuable Victorian Rubbish Dumps Ron Dale

To readers not acquainted with the phenomenon of digging up antique bottles and pot-lids from old rubbish dumps, this book may seem unusual, but these "advertiques" are avidly collected in the U. K. Australasia and the U. S. A. The rarer finds dug out of old rubbish dumps can now realise several thousands of pounds and it is understandably important to collectors to be able to continue digging. The author points the way for future generations of collector-diggers so that the treasure underground is not lost forever. For anyone interested in digging up their own antiques, this book is a must.
