Hi, Hemster, and welcome! I have to say, I love your avatar!
YourTurn, here's a page of 1915 "college humor" from Google Books, including a couple from Awgwan. I have to say, I either "don't get" the jokes,...
Wildrose, I've seen that mark several times, but I've never known whose it was.
I'm amazed at the huge disparity in asking prices for these little boxes. (Some call them jewelry boxes, others jewelry caskets, and still others,...

Way to go, MrNate! Here's hoping it not only SELLS, but also beats the estimate! (There will be a reserve on it, right?)
Yes, indeed... 1977 or later, up until 2000.
One more thing... This is Minton pattern #As5149. I see some similarities with yours & wonder if they might be from the same time period: [ATTACH]

You know, I was probably wrong with the military collection. My reply was based on the TONS of these kits that are shown online as military....
Having opened originally as the Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Collection (AARFAC), the facility changed names in 1977 to the Abby Aldrich...
