I think this Folk Art Clown Marionette was probably made around the turn of the 20th century. I also bought this at the Lucketts Vintage Market in October 2023. I have similar likes as my antique collector friends at Vintage Culture Antiques. This is my second year buying from them!

1911 Edison Record “The Longest Way Around is the Sweetest Way Home” by Oakland. Another find from the Lucketts Vintage Market in October 2023. I bought this from Trodden Trails Antiques. I’ve been wanting one of these records for a while and hope to get an Edison Home Phonograph to play this on one day. Over 100 years ago, it would cost $30 to get the player, but now I need to save $400-$500 to get one!
