    Those pieces are WAY cool, especially the 1908 Evans naval fob and the perpetual calendar! image

    PS-I need to scan some of my similar stuff dug long ago- the fobs and tags and stuff. One of my favorites is from the Detroit Yacht Club. How it got to Western NC where I found it, I have no idea. But it shows a 1920s racing boat and says, "MISS AMERICA / AT NINETY MILES AN HOUR".

    PPS- those shield-shaped fobs are super sweet, too, especially the one with the bear.

    Looks like that Donner monument was dedicated in 1918.
