    "African Art Letter Opener" for those wooden knives.

    The flag is a casket flag that would have been draped on the casket of someone who served. They are not supposed to be unfolded after they are folded after the funeral. Someone must have taken yours out and refolded it because the stripes are not supposed to show once it's been folded. When I come across them I take them to the legion to be properly destroyed in a flag ceremony.

And seen a ton of cool stuff met a ton of cool people and heard some cool stories from the "kids" (grown adults) that were working at their parents estate sale. I have the best time ever and I love the artwork you can find. I bought an Oliver Quevedo "Love Story" Limited Edition print for $5 and should have pulled the trigger on an R. LANZI oil painting of what I would assume is opra man and umbrella with guitar or cello.

The history alone in that house just spoke volumes of a lifetime. I looked up the book 📖 on Amazon, basic love story from WWll era, so maybe 🤔 just maybe that was her father, brother flag from that era. Anyway, Ty for that haul and the bits and pieces I did learn on such an interesting woman. Again, I’d be interested in the book if it’s still available.
