Nana and I went to the old coal mining town today. We started at the old ballpark and the first thing Nana digs is a silver rosie! Got us pumped up but after about an hour of nothing but fence pieces I say...let's go into town. So we head to an empty lot between two houses in town.

We headed to the back side of the lot and after just a few minutes I see these dolls under an old tree. I climb under the privets and started pulling out dolls, a toy trolley then see this bowl of marbles. I holler for Donna to come over and about that time I pulled out a tin...the lid came off and more marbles! All of this stuff was sitting on top of the ground or just barely covered in dirt.
There were toy tanks, cars, jewelry, flatware, marbles, play money, compacts.....

I haven't had time to clean it all up but here it is....

Wow!! Nice finds!!!!!!!......marbles must have been the game to play back then ''Ohh wait''. Mom told me stories, about when they played marbles..and she would loose them,and : her brothers would beat them up, and get her marbles back :thumbsup:

What fun! I'd love to hear from whoever left it there. Do you suppose they'd even remember? How old do you think it is?

Fantastic finds! Can't wait to see some of that stuff cleaned up. Believe it or not, some of those marbles could be collectibles

Congrats!
