Was just kidding when I said "action figure". But he looks ready for some action.
Hopefully this is the correct category to post this in. My dad traveled a lot before getting married & a long time before I was around. Not sure...
Looks about right. Basic lever. Works as a fulcrum at the top. Pretty cool for a simple invention, back then. 1800's?
Had this thing for quite a few years and never really knew what it was. Obviously, it's a hanging scale. The hooks make me think fish, but I...
Your probably right about the wedding gift thing. I think I have quite a few old wedding gifts from several past generations.
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Trying to deal with a few boxes of silverplated pieces that I've had stored for years. Identifying...

Figured I'd post some more of these boxes and then be done with it. One of them I posted years back by itself, because I love it so much. This is...
The Pine cone or cocoon one says china inside the lid. The other has no markings except what's on top. It's really light and very hand made when...
Not too sure. It's really lightweight. Like a kind of heavy paper of some sort. The scene has like a clear cover over it with a brass like ring...
It's full. Mark says "Mexico".
Well done. Probably India? Have a lot of those brass pieces and they tend to be from that part of the world.
Over the years I've obtained a few of these little "containers". Mainly from my mother and grandmother. Do they actually have a purpose? Pills,...
