    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    OK, found out what Kraftblue's and one of mine's were, now for these two.....First one... heavy, 2-3/8 inches long and says "THE METROPOLITAN", PATENT, J.HUDSON & CO., 13 BARR ST., BIRMINGHAM.....straight high pitched whistle.....

    This second one's a bugger because it's kind of a 'plastic' or some sort of black hard substance.....VERY HARD TO READ.....2-3/4 inches long and a little lower pitched straight whistle. It almost looks like a "fraternal" org. logo or some such....I just don't know and can't read it well....after/with the whistle I'm also posting an inverted image of the circular printing on it.....

    AND, of course, and MOST APPRECIATIVE FOR ANY HELP YOU MAY BE ABLE TO PROVIDE!!! TOTALLY UNDERSTAND if there's nothing to be found!!!!!!!
