Hello All. Hunted 3 small town city lots and adjacent curbstrips for these finds. Found the usual hardware, cosmetics, wheats, marbles, etc. with a brass comb, an old electric iron, a few unknowns, some OK glass, and an early (I think) automotive association badge.

The auto assn badge looked to be just a flat pc of thin brass till I got home and began to high grade junk from keepers. Turns out it is engraved "Southern Automobile Owners Association SAOA"...nice. Still not sure how old it is yet, will need to do more research to be sure. Any ideas??

Thanks for the view and Good Luck out there. C9

Great hunt. The iron and comb are very cool! :occasion14:
 

Nice old relics, congratulations! :occasion14:
 

Very cool hunt with lots of old relics.
If you clean up the marbles and post them on the Marbles Forum,, "cheese" will help you identify them.
Some marbles are worth bucks.
Congratulations on your finds.

Wow! What a haul.

Nicely done, and all the best,
