A new type fell into our mailbox today! Sent by Paolo Sanchez and found a University of California Berkeley campus. Paolo included a long letter in his shipment, explaining how Berkley is a university with roots deep in the 19th century and points out its involvement in the development of nuclear physics and the Free …
Another cool shipment from Tommy and Jericho Nelson, found at Burma Road outside Twin Bridges, Montana. Both junior archaeologists, as they like to call themselves, have already shipped 3 times before…and usually there are really cool or rare pull tabs within each shipment, like this 1963 ziptop tab on the left, the very first pull …
We were on TV!! Well, our t-shirt was.. Pull Tab Archaeologist professor Nicholas Beaudry (UQAR Canada) wore our t-shirt when on Canadian TV! Really cool! See second 44 and on, but the whole item about this 19th century settlement is interesting to watch, of course. Good exercise for my rather rusty French.

But the weird thing is, how can it be that we never found this one before? With billions and billions of tabs produced every year, of every current type, the chances of …
This week we counted all pull tab from the 12,5 m (41 feet) pull tab beer chain sent by Finnie Wagaman!Finnie drank this entire chain together, with her college buddies Tom and Pat at Harrisburg University of Science and Technology in the year 1985-1986! Consider sending your pull tabs, too!Or buy me a coffee at …
I finally solved the mystery of the presence of these weird old fashion T-type pull tabs in my neighbourhood. I already had a sneak’n suspicion, but I didn’t want to indulge in my biases, but when I visited the Turkish (I think) grocery store around the corner, I actually bought a can with a T-IV …
