A Double-sided salt-shaker?? I'm stumped.... - 7/1/2006 9:54:14 PM    Yooper14 Posts: 313 Joined: 4/25/2005 From: Ohio Status: offline My strange find from Friday.  What is this?  It reminds me of salt shakers I find, but it has a screws on top and bottom.  The bottom is closed.  Maybe they screwed a base on it? I'm posting some closeups of the lettering and what I think it says as well. Thanks for your help on this one.

Look at the red & blue in the center.  Click on the pictures to enlarge. http://www.candycontainer.org/Scrapbook_Lantern.html _____________________________ ~ tncgal ~ (in reply to Yooper14) Post #: 4
