    That item at the end is what Mama called a "Mad Money Purse". The chain is part of the original item. It is probably from the 1900's or more likely the 1920s. The little hinged door was PROBABLY a small powder or rouge compact (back then, girls would rouge their knees as well as their cheeks) and the circular things held coins.
    The one I had contained a clip for a folded dollar bill, along with the two coin holders and a powder compact. It also had a mirror. Back in the Roaring Twenties, girls would carry such a purse on a date. If her beau became too "forward", wanting to "make time" after "cutting a rug", she had her "mad money" in the little purse so she could either telephone home or call a taxi to preserve her maidenly honor. hence the term "Mad Money"

    The last item shown holds money.. coins on one side and what looks like a place for bills (or an ID) on the other side.. if your out and about and need to make sure you have coins for a phone call…. Back when phones were only a dime to use. I have one on a necklace chain that I bought in the 60s.. and it was much older than that. I found one on line listed as A German coin Locket

    Referring to your piece about emergency addresses in Kentucky, here, where I live in rural NZ we have what I believe to be a very practical system of numbering rural addresses. The number are based on the distance the house is from the beginning of the road. For example if my house were to be 2 km 55m down the road the number would be 2055. This means that an emergency vehicle does not have to drive slowly, looking for house numbers, but can instantly drive the distance given by the house number and be right on target.
    Of course, this would not work where distance is measured in miles and yards rather than kilometres and metres.

    I've recognized betty lamps before, but that's one of the nicest ones I've ever seen.
    The last item looks like it can hold a few coins in the round areas. In England, at least, upper class women out for the evening would carry similar things holding sovereigns and half-sovereigns, so they would always have cab fare home. (Thank you, Antiques Road Trip!!) This looks like it can hold a few other things as well.

    The last item looks like it could have been for a Scribe or Notary Public. Or a similar usage.
    But, I might be mistaken.

    I have a couple of parallel rules, neither so fancy, but I've found that it's a royal pain to roll them without one side or the other moving more than the other...making it difficult to keep your lines parallel. Still, I'd love to have that one.

      There was a rolly-ruler thing from the 1980's that my brother uses all the time, every time I ever tried it never tracked right, but it's the same type of thing only in clear plastic.

    "Claw-like".......with a hyphen. Otherwise it's just two unconnected words, "claw" and "like", which makes no sense.

      @lawrencecarlstrom3465 11 месяцев назад +1

      Nice to meet a fellow pedant! The hyphen has been dropped due to common usage. The current spelling is "clawlike" according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary and Collins English dictionary. The space should have been omitted. However, maybe we should give it a pass since, I think, most of us understood what was meant. A lot of the great unwashed think that's really the most important point in punctuation.
