Ive researched this type of bottle and found many similiar, but none exactly like it...Makes me think it might be a reproduction. It has a very distinctive pontil. Double ring on base. No markings at all. It is light blue/teal in color. Ive looked closley and found no scratches, no cracks, no wear anywhere.

This is a Saint Benedicti Abb relic inside what I believe is called a theca. It looks to me like it is a first class relic. The relic still bears the wax seal and threads un-damaged. The wax seal looks like it has a shield with a cross on it and above it. Above the wax seal are the numbers 537-1052. 

Hi,

My name is Kim and I found two marionette puppets while cleaning my grandfathers attic. One male and one female. My grandmother was able to tell me he had them for many years and he bought them oversees while he was in the military.

Both are made of wood. They appear to be hand painted on their faces.Both of them have moveable mouths. The male is anatomicaly correct with a penis and a hole for an anus. The females clothes are sewn shut so I am not sure if she is anatomically correct. I could not find any markings on them anywhere. There was a piece of the females clothes that had maybe foreing words on it - nothing in english i could make out.

I would love to know exactly how old they are and if they have a value.

Thanks,

Kim
