Finally figured out how to do pictures....Get your children to do it! :hello2: :hello2:

Anyways, here are a couple items I've found. The angel thing I found. Thought it was a rock but it's not, it's metal of some kind. Am sure it's nothing amazing, just curious if anyone has ever seen anything like this.
Shed some light on the specifics of the metal soldier? I've looked at different mfrs, closest match I've seen is Beton?/Lincoln logs.

Thanks for looking.

The angel thing could be pewter but I can't say for sure. Don't know much aobut the soldier but looks WWI period.

Your totem style Boeing pin dates to the 40's and were awarded right up to the time of the merger with McDonnell Douglas.

I love that pin. Thanks for the info, To me that is one of my favorite finds. It seems in great condition and even still has the screw-type backer with it.

I wish I could describe the angel thing more. I can only tell that it IS metal but it's not lead. Beyond that it really has me curious.

This sounds crazy but I found one of those Angel things years ago and somebody said it was a blessing stone(I know they arent stone)I guess one would hold it or rub it when they needed a blessing

Well, that helped, thanks for the tip Kruger. It's called a "soothing stone". It is pewter and I found a picture.
Amazing the combined knowledge on one forum.

Yes BigCypress, I know they are nothing of value but both my wife and I have searched for a match to it with no luck. I'd just like to id the mfr and timeframe if possible.

Yes thats what I meant that the toy soldier is the only item unidentified. :icon_thumright:

It may have some value.
