Dumpdigging is a wholesome pasttime

Subject: Dumpdigging is a wholesome pasttime

Hello my name is Rob Campbell and I'm introducing myself here on what looks like a new antiques forum.

Of course antiques are a good investment! They always have been all through time, and although people's tastes are always changing, good stories and great pieces will always accrue value. I truly believe that building a collection is a life's work and nothing is more valuable.

But I seldom buy anything - I trade the materials I find with other collectors. I'm assembling a stoneware ginger beer collection now, while earlier in this life i was nuts about glass bottles. I already have almost ALL of Toronto's early pharmacy bottles, about 7000 pieces in all - let me know if you need help appraising or identifying a Toronto medicine. Im working on a book.

Open in new window

And I write a blog called Dumpdiggers about my adventures traveling back in history, one hole at a time.
