Old Pewter Row of Rabbits Mold paper cards found in Maine and I'd

found in Maine and I'd be willing to bet painted there

I really like the graphic quality of the big red EGLANTINE across one side of this old wooden box

and I have done a bit of repair to the top side seams

9 1/16" x 7" and in good condition

I believe this little frog dates to the late 19th century

Old Pewter Row of Rabbits Mold paper cards found in Maine and I'dI'm never quite sure what molds were used for candy vs. chocolate vs. ice cream vs toys, but honestly don't much care; I just like them for their looks, and have a particular fondness for bunnies! And I like the two sides of this mold either stacked or placed side by side, to create two rows of rabbits hopping in opposite directions, or else one long row with packs facing off! Nice patina to the the pewter too, lending a sort of painterly color
