A neat story find

[TokenMan]

So I went back to the yard where I dug the 1930's Jr. Birdmen of America pin...and told a story of how disappointed the child must have been when they realized their silver wing pin had fallen off after running around the yard. And how they must of searched and searched with no luck...til I dug it up. Well today I dug this and can't help to wonder if it was used as an aid in their search for the pin. The end to a 1920's Jr. Winchester flashlight. Worth nothing... but the value of wondering what the story is behind some of our finds...priceless!

Actual find:




Below are pics from a whole one I found doing a little research, what it once looked like:



Thanks for looking and have a happy and safe weekend!

That flashlight back is cool. I found the back of one by W.T. Grant called the "E-Z" Lite. It was the baby model that would have looked like this...http://www.flashlightmuseum.com/flashlights/WT00001.jpg
