Good hunt, especially in this weather

Was there a fad in our area for tiny toy lanterns in 1900? I think you commented on a hunt I had last month, when I found this in upstate NY.



Tiny lantern club!

Awesome! From Z.K.'s post, looks like all you are missing is a clear glass marble to make yours complete again! Congrats on some great relics. Sub

This was a rough month of heat!, I like the little lantern and any day with a shield nickel is a great one in my eyes!
