That's a beauty, Jimmy! It looks like it came from the group "lot of four" that was in Lelands a few weeks ago. Do you know if the person who won that group lot has sold/is selling any of the others? I almost went after that grouping. It is always interesting to see what happens with these multiple group lots after they are broken down and redistributed.
I was looking at a 4 year-old REA catalogue today, and saw about 6 pieces that I now own (which originally were included in various group lots from REA). It is funny how some of this stuff keeps recirculating, and some is never seen again. Yours is definitely a "keeper"! |

I purchased these tins and c1930 paperweight as a poorly listed lot on ebay and am thrilled that I can check this Cubs figural off my want list. The tins are a bit rough, but I consider them a freebie throw in with my purchase

The circular Chicago Cubs tin reminds me of the most surreal antique buying trip in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Maine about 10 years ago. After having spent several summers not finding anything much in Nova Scotia, we started on a trip to Maine, stopping at antique stores along the way as a plan.
The first two stores--bam--the Chicago Cubs tin in each store. By the time we hit southern Maine a week later, I had found 8 of these tins -- and not much of anything else baseball. |

Just got this in the mail today...it's a circa 1890s cabinet photo of the Ames Avenue Omaha street Railway team. Couldn't fit the whole thing on my scanner.
Marsh was a prominent Omaha photographer whose photos appeared in Harpers. ![]()
