Is this cool or what??

I'm very partial to local antiquities and being that Steubenville is a sad shadow of it's industrial and glass making past, I find it cool to see old photos of trolleys and booming commerce. I feel about the same of Wheeling but it is 30 miles south of Steubenville and I, like Dino Crocetti, am from here.

Imagine how cool it would be to actually find ca. 1863 Toys bought with this Civil War store token.

And wouldn't this be cool to visit. Now buried by a concrete and asphalt highway connector.
The closest trolley park (still in existence) to here is Kennywood. Second closest is Cedar Point.



On ebay, type in your home town from time to time. You never know what you might find.

The token is cool. Hobub you and I have the same passion for history. I have bought civil war bullets and have often wondered the conditions the person was in at the time he fired it.
