They scraped some dirt at one of my favorite spots the other day. It was VERY rocky, tough digging, and a lot of crushed cans & bottle tops. Very odd. Anyways, I did find a couple of cool pieces for the collection...
I found an old tag of some sort. I googled the lettering on top (which stands for American Railway Systems Co.) and the first result that popped up was for a collectors website with information about baggage/luggage checks. So, I email the admin, and he tells me my piece definitely ISN'T a baggage check. I can't understand why it has that lettering on top then. Great relic either way.
I also got an old "Lucky Esther" makeup tin, and a piece of an old ceramic pot or vase...which would've been an incredible piece if it wasn't broken
Any guesses on the tag???
