This item is believed to be a 1940s era marionette stage or theater. The set comes with a stage with four distinct holes for the four yellow poles. It also comes with a top cover that I believe hangs from the four poles(last picture). The set also came with what looks like an animal cage for the marionettes and wheels that look like they are connected to the cage in some way. Lastly there is a board first pictured that came with the set along with a ladder made with rope and blue wooden boards. The final items I am not quite sure how they belong to the set, I've have been doing tons of research trying to locate the answers. Any and all information is greatly appreciated thank you for taking the time to read this.
Ladies Bulova watch...number on the back is 8420159 with the word Bulova. There are small diamond like gemstones next to the watch face (looks like a snake mouth).
The statue was unearthed whilst buring a pet in Montvale, Virginia, about 20 years ago. It was taken to a local antique dealer who said that it was possibly from New Mexico as it was carved from shells and coral from that region. He also put a date of 500 BC or earlier. I would like to find out more information about this object but really don't know how to go about doing more research.
