I managed to retrieve a 45 wheatie, an aluminum spoon (maybe from a child's tea set), 3 old headstamps, (Peters No 12 Target, US No 12 Climax, a really toasted 16ga), another pocket knife which is my 2nd this week (looks like a pearl handle but has O'Conner Steel Co, Akron Ohio. Not sure when they were established but found a reference to them in a 1933 newspaper article, oh and check out the old school phone number), and what I am thinking is part of an old tobacco pipe. (On the metal piece it has ??NKLESS No 213598. The mouth piece looks like bakelite and it has what looks to be teeth impressions. That kind of personalized it lol)
Any info appreciated.

Nice finds! I found a small aluminum spoon similar to yours a couple weeks ago.ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1522980100.518905.jpg
I thought that it may have been for medicinal dosing? But you may be correct and from a kids play set. Congrats!
 

Interesting follow-up on the pipe mouthpiece. It is a drinkless mouthpiece circa 1924. They made the screw in types up to the mid 30s.

Those are some cool finds. I love the marble.
That peddler's license is awesome. 1919?
