Found old Up to date guitary instructory book by Franklin Eaton - signatures inside with dates of 1905 and 1906 - cost was $.50 by mail - book is bound and in good condition
I was going to provide more detailed pictures, but my flash broke while shooting. The signature in each peice is at the center right hand side. Signature reads "Roger Lundquist '73" in cursive handwriting. If you lift up the mat, the names of all the cars depicted are embossed at the bottom of the print/? in gold foil lettering about 1/2 an inch tall. On the right and left ends of each peice, under the mat, ther is about a half inch wide foil border. Also printed(type) on the bottom opening of the mat is the name of each car depicted.
This was purchased in Babenhausen, Germany when my father was stationed there in 1955-1957. It displays exceptional prism colors when light hits it. Has very clear bell sound of fine lead crystal. The bowl is 3 footed with lid, there are 10 cups, 5 ladies and 5 men's, the ladle is a plastic composite. I remember my mother telling me she opted for the plastic ladle as she was afraid the crystal one would damage the bowl at some point. There are a few of the cups with small chipping on the lip. I don't find any on the bowl or lid. The particulars are as follows:
A young girl doll about 32"-34" tall. Hair is very nice and has been protected with a fine net which covers the head. Eyes close and the facial features are hand painted with white little teeth.
The dress is perfect, as are the shoes. A little infant bottle is with her but probably wasn't originally.
