A lead Native American, an African American gentleman, and a lovely Lady.

Three heads are better than none. Pinocchio, an I don't know what the heck it is, maybe a Pez head, and a tiny doll head.

The best doll head I have dug. Came from a town dump down in Kennebunk.

A victorian bisque statue and an egg with a kid busting out of it.

A couple of horsies. The large one I dug with my two daughters. I wire brushed it but good, should probably hit the little one , too.

First is a hand that was attached to a spring and a base. It was used to clip papers together or calling cards.

The next item is part of a game, I believe it had to do with rolling a marble into it.

The triangle is a victorian game with little balls inside that you try to get into the center. It's still working. Found in an 1870's dump.

The slipper was once a pin cushion. it is highly embossed with cranes, turtles, reeds , etc.

The match case I found last summer, it held wooden matches.

Two keys, a baby spoon and a 50 caliber shell.

I've dug many clay marbles, but this one is big at 1-3/8".

Not sure what the clay cube is for, but I like it anyway.

I like the dice, the red one is really modern, the green one is older, the colored lettered block is an odd item and the tiny die is hand made and hand drilled and is only 1/4" .

Last one....a variety of childrens tea set pieces, other than the tiny stein, which reads "Here Is My Regards" . I've dug lots of tea set saucers, but they aren't as interesting as the cups to me. Besides, I have to draw the line somewhere.
