I picked up these two talking brick from in front of my stepsons apartment a few weeks ago. I was wondering if anyone can tell me anything about them? Malvern is a town in Columbiana County, Ohio. The other one I'm not sure where it is from.

The Worlds Fair was in 4 parts and 2 parts were in the US. O,aha, Nebraska -The Greater American Exposition  and in Philadelphia, Pennsylvaina - The National Export Exposition.

Those are very cool little bits of American history. They were likely of the main causway of the fair in Philly.
