Thes black steam locomotive bookends were made in Japan and were hand painted. They date back at least as far as the 1940's, if not earlier.

Geocaching: Found, Traditional, Micro, August Thirty Seven Bonus 2013, GC4JJMG, 11/28/2016

After 5 other very disappointing DNF's, 2 because I still cannot find them after looking a few months ago and again today, 1 because it is missing and a NM needs to be filed, 1 because of a construction crew was present and another because water is currently surrounding the DZ I finally found one on this very cool windy day. I should have had a heavier coat on.
