Plus a couple of other "whats its" from recent homesite hunts.

The SU (spousal unit) sez, right off the bat that it's an old door buzzer and the 'pod' shaped item is a cupcake tin/foil. Neither of us have an idea what the slender object is.
Personally, I have no idea what the "buzzer" thang is, looks more like a suspender or buckle to me, and the tin's shape is pod-like to me....and no, it won't re-shape into a circle.
The other thing, eh...dunno...I did make the "plehbah paste" (baking soda & water). I'm gettin' there-- as it is so encrusted w/ dirt.

The item on the left looks like a musical note paper holder.

Is the other thing lead? Clean it to reveal the marking numbers.

I finally had a chance to snap a pic of the 'slender' item.

It's the best I could do-- and it looks like a"W" and maybe a "c"...plus the numbers 3 or 8 --then a definite 3 and 7.

I have NO clue, again :-\
