Several parks from this weekend's activities in Baltimore City produced some interesting finds. A couple school awards, token for school fare on United Railway and Electric Company (Baltimore), a large clay marble, a padlock key.

The reading award has a school id on the back. In short form it reads "HSCT #122". A little digging and I found that the school is The Historic Samuel Coleridge-Taylor school at 507 W. Preston St. in Baltimore. Seeing as how I found the two awards at Calvert St. Park, this is quite some distance from the school. Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was an accomplished late Victorian-era composer of mixed race.
