Antique Questions Forum / Carnival Glass Baby Plate

« on: July 16, 2004, 07:40:18 pm »

I can't recall where I got this plate from, but I'm interested it finding out about it where it originated from.  Its glass is a bit more translucent than the pictures show, and its more of a yellow/orangish tint to the glass, with a rainbowy/oily looking surface.  This looks kind of like the plates that were given away at carnivals as prizes.  Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Antique Questions Forum / Interesting Wooden Sticks

« on: July 09, 2004, 06:41:03 am »

Found these wooden sticks at an antique show.  The seller had no idea what exactly they were used for, but I found them interesting and couldn't pass up the price, so I purchased them.  I've done a pretty thorough search with google, however nothing came up as to what these could have been used for.  They look like something to bang on a xylophone or drum with, but it's not any kind of quality wood or anything to be used in a professional manner.  Any ideas?



The Top stick has no writing.  The middle stick says 'Jack Valentine's Ice Show Fort Lauderdale, FLA.'  And the bottom stick says 'Latin Quarter New York & Miami Beach.'
