first find in my backyard

[baddley]

Hi

I found this in my yard and I am trying to figure out what it is, I have a idea but I am not sure




Any ideas are welcome.

Thanks
Scott

Is it some kind of modern fired bullet?

that's a pretty lousy picture, but it looks like a lipstick tube

that's a pretty lousy picture, but it looks like a lipstick tube

that was my first guess given the pic....

 

[baddley]

it is none of the above, it has no brass and some and a ring at the bottom too. Sorry about the lousy phone pics

 

[lairmo]

can you take a couple more pics from different angles and laying flat? pull your cell phone farther away and zoom in to see if that helps any...

 

[baddley]

Stand on your head for the first picture lol, somewhat better pics hopefully

I think lipstick tube may be correct, like second from the left maybe?:

Welcome to the 'What Is It' forum Scott!

That's exactly what it is... these were available in different sizes from retailers.
Yours likely dates to the 1920s or 30s.
