Default Congrats

Keith, Those are phenomenal...like Peter said I've never seen them before...They look a lot like the sports candy containers made of paper mache....and the condition looks like easy restore...I think there are lots of doll repair people out there. I speculate they're German...They were big on decorative things like these in the late 19th- early 20th century...The pins are very curious...obviously they were mounted on some kind of base...The fact you nailed four of them is incredible!...Nice job...Congrats on a great pick up!..Below two candy container examples...
