Syroco Bookend / Pioneers, Oxen, Wagon
Single bookend, depicting a team of oxen being driven and pulling a Conestoga type covered wagon, much like the pioneers used when heading west. Has great detail, material I believe to be Syroco; a molded pressed wood. Unmarked, was possibly made by Syroco Wood Co, Syracuse, N.Y. They often used paper labels. Condition: End chips here and there; some may be manufacturing flaws as the color is the same/ consistant. Horse & rider to the side, the ox team, driver to the side, and a man, woman, and child are riding in the front of the wagon, again, shows great detail.

Ohio Art Globe Zodiac Base
This globe was made by the Ohio Art Co. of Bryan Ohio. I dont see any dates as to when it was made. It sits on a tin base with signs of the Zodiac around the base, and the base measures 6-1/2 inches across. The holder is plastic and the bottom tip is off, and I believe it is inside the globe; it rests fine on the base without that tip. There is also a dent in the S. Atlantic Ocean. All in all Id say this was in pretty good shape for its age, resting on the base it stands approximately 11-1/2 inches height, graphics are good. Has Congo (changed 1971) has Omon (1970) Has French West Africa (changed early 1960s) - Germany is not divided (1949) The girth at equator is 29 inches around.
