Antique Acorn Grange South Cushing, ME Patrons of Husbandry Secretary's Ribbon with Many Hands activities book and I might guess she

and I might guess she dates from the 30s or 40s

another lovely one for the special ruler collection

but a little handwriting visible

and this one with a fantastic pattern of 12 stacked squares on the hinged lid

As with antique portraits of girls and their dolls

Antique Acorn Grange South Cushing, ME Patrons of Husbandry Secretary's Ribbon with Many Hands activities book and I might guess sheI love an old ribbon badge and couldn't resist this one, with two sets of shaking hands on front (another on reverse) and best of all a writing hand at top. And at first I read that as Secretary Poe (rather than POH) as in Edgar Allen, writing away with his feather pen! Red, white and blue and a sheaf of wheat with crescent moon to boot. Late 19th early 20th c. I believe, Grand No 418 of South Cushing, Maine, 7 7 8" including metallic thread fringe x
