Panama Canal

Is it a sign, or a car plate, did it hold a flag? We have no idea, came from a family garage. Panama Canal The Land Divided - The World United. Lightweight metal.
Update 5/13/12: It appears to be a license plate topper, neither of us had seen these before, but they appear very collectable.

Ship on the left and alligator on the right.

Was painted red and green at one point. This right loop appears to be broken.

Delaware Plate

OK, we love plates. They are small, cheap and easy to display. They come in every imaginable subject and style. This particular plate is the newest addition to both the sculpted animal plate and Delawareiania collections. Gotta love a crossover.

Pretty Plates

Mr. Relic's Grandmother gave Mrs. Relic the green and tan bird plate when she was downsizing. She loved it and hung it on the wall to Mr. Relics skepticism, though he didn't hate it.

Pretty yellow and tan bird on an oak branch. Back marked Italy.

Six months later Mrs. Relic spied the cute bunny plate in a store and was thrilled when she saw it would be free, based on auto-price-lowering policy at one of The Relics favorite rummage spots. Two like items make a collection, right? Well, it does around here, we now have a sculpted animal plate collection, preferable in a color scheme to match the green room.
