I've been hunting a spot lately that has had such a variety of stuff, and today was the best yet. The highlight was my oldest coin yet which was also my first Seated Liberty, an 1855 w/Arrows dime in VG condition. Also found a 1925 Mercury dime.

This looks like and old Art Deco hood ornament

Some bits and pieces, plus an old copper brooch and what looks like a match safe?

Some more bits and pieces and a bullet. I wonder if the round things might be grommets from a CW-era tent...? They're definitely grommets at any rate.

Hard to see, but this first thing is actually a very cool item. It says "MEMBER CAPTAIN TIM'S IVORY STAMP CLUB" and has a picture of Captain Tim. It was an ivory soap premium from the 30s. Also this red thing that has a logo with an A and wings. Anybody know what that is? Then some silverplate I found. It was a very fun few hours! Thanks in advance for looking and for any ideas you might have in IDing some of this stuff.

isn't Flying A an old old logo

Yes, for an old gas station chain I think. It's close, but in their logo the wings go straight out horizontally.
