    So i went back by this little store today and low and behold sitting inside their glass case was these three missing tiles thet go with it. And A folded up piece of paper identifying the people. I made a fuss with them about this and they gave me the tiles and paper for free. I still can't believe this happened, But i'm glad. It is finally complete again.

    So the first one died in 1912 and the last tile with no pic is dated 1954. Was this made for the first and the others added as they passed?

    Now to figure out if it "belongs" somewhere. That's why odd objects usually come to me; I'm supposed to put them where they belong.

    Well I've been informed by two others that the book stand doesn't go with it. It had a temple type roof. I'll keep looking.

    Yes. I plan on taking a photo of the roof from that listing to them. I've been lucky so far.
