<p>[QUOTE="'Nuff_Said, post: 59974, member: 181"]@Your, you are most welcome, but the bird tablet is only inscribed with the former owners name, date (1898) and has no location info. The leather diary (a totally separate item with no relation to the bird tablet) is inscribed with the former owner's name, address, location (PA.) and dates circa, 1935-36.</p><p><br /></p><p>@Book, you are most welcome and no, thank you! Hopefully, your guy replies with some good news (fingers crossed).</p><p><br /></p><p>@CX, thank you! Awww, did you see all that's there? The head & face are made up of entirely nude figures (I think all women). His clothing, made of these weird rock-<i>like</i> human figures (sorry, not sure how to describe them). I have no idea who the artist is, but the piece dates, first half of the 20th C. and was cheap!</p><p><br /></p><p>Ok, I just spent $145 (including shipping) on two watch boxes which cost me more than what we paid for both watches combined <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie78" alt=":rage:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie77" alt=":punch:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie30" alt=":cat:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. The one is vintage (circa, late-60s to early-70s) and in very good condition for its age and is completely period to the watch posted a couple pages back. The other box is contemporary, and will be housing the recently found Rado that my hubby decided to keep for himself (Happy early Father's Day,...punk! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie59" alt=":kiss:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />) If the other watch fails to sell for somewhere around our asking price, no big deal.....we'll just keep it.
