Find this delight in my Poshmark listings- cast bronze mini camera sculpture - with loops- can add a strap- make it a pendant or key chain or adornment or add to your collection. Bronze casts are first sculpted in wax- it is a multistep tedious process- resulting in a long lasting one of a kind casting. This camera fits in the palm of your hand. Has two little loops- integrated into the camera body- just like a real camera. It is hollow- a nice weight- very different than other metals. Artist unknown. Origin unknown. Age unknown.
Sold! But there are hundreds of other cool, unique, handy, affordable, rare, useful, etc…. Items for sale in my Poshmark listings. Head on over & check them out :)

Elizabeth Gould 1925
‘Libby’
From my great aunt from Ohio. I was lucky enough to be gifted many of her 1920’s- 1950’s special belongings which are now rare collectibles. For several decades I have carefully kept, protected and enjoyed her pieces in my art collections.
This photo (and others in my listings) are original & should be carefully handled & kept- if you decide to display it, please protect it behind UV shielding glass. Consult with a antiques specialist or museum if you need to know more about how to preserve this American history gem.

Curious?
Oxford isn’t the oldest university, not by a long shot. India’s Nalanda University had already operated for hundreds of years and been burnt down by invaders before Oxford got its act together. But Oxford, as one of the oldest universities in continuous operation, doesn’t feel that old. It’s a product of our time. You can still enroll at Oxford. You can still go to Merton College.
The Aztec civilization of central Mexico, on the other hand, feels like ancient history. Archaeologists dig up Aztec ruins, museums put on Aztec exhibits. But the origination of the Aztec civilization, marked by the founding of the city of Tenochtitlán by the Mexica at Lake Texcoco, didn’t come until 1325. Tenochtitlán was captured by Spanish conquerors in 1521, just 196 years later. The White House has been standing longer than the Aztecs ruled Tenochtitlán.
None of this is intended to pit civilizations against each other. But it’s an interesting way to think about how skewed our understanding of history really is—we have these timelines in our heads that are distorted and compressed, and they don’t always agree with reality. To get a clearer picture of how the world really works, sometimes it helps to keep things in context.
