Out at the old church site again this morning and only found a key, zincoln, and the front plate from an old radio-a Majestic model 71 from about 1928. Unfortunately it's seen better days!
Here is what the whole unit looks like:

Cool find Digger , I must be going crazy because now I'm wondering what the last song played on it was ............ Oh well , one of the side effects of this hobby .
Thanks CT, but I have to wonder how you think sometimes! But I guess I have to admit I'm guilty of that sometimes myself. Hmmmm.....

Interesting find. I woulda said great ID too, but you had more to go on that some other items. Prob from either a church social or tag sale.
It's a strange site to be detecting. Lots and lots of nails, some really big ones too, almost qualify as spikes. Some areas have some building material remnants, but I'm at a loss as to where it all came from. It's the original church with a newer school building attached at the rear. But the side yard where I am finding the stuff has little or no modern items, little to no trash, and there was never a building of any sort there that I can determine. What I suspect is that the side yard must have been scraped or dug out in the late 40's or early 50's and filled with topsoil from another site. This would explain the lack of items, but what is there is from the 50's and all at about the same 4 inch depth. Only the couple exceptions where I found the few older things are all at the 9 to 12 inch depth.

Still I like old items. I neat when you can give them a name and/or a date.
