Chinese Tobacco Pouch and Healds College Advertising Mirror - HELP
Anyone run into information on either of these types of items???
I don't know anything about the objects, but I have a feeling that GFB went to Heald's College (they had a mining dept.) and that is why the object is in the collection. Pure conjecture, but interesting. This website gives a good description of the mirror that you might be able to use, if you haven't already.
