Greetings all, Here's a church I acquired not too long ago. It looks quite old and very different from the ones I now own. It says "1924" on the bottom of it. Could this really be the said date? If so, it's probably the oldest putz I have in my entire collection. Any feedback on this one anybody? Thanks for your replies in advance! Cheers, Will

I bid on that one also and was curious about the 1924. The fence appears to be early because of the shape, but the padre seems newer. I thought maybe the cross and padre were added later because the building has characteristics of a house rather than a church. Does the oval stamp help date a house, as opposed to a round stamp? I'm new to this though and am just guessing, so I'm interested in hearing 'the experts' input. |

I'm thinking that it's more likely a product ID or some such. My opinion only, but the cellophane windows imply that it's meant to be lit from the back, a technology that wasn't available to most of the public in 1924. That said, it is CUTE AS A BUNNY! And having a padre on the lawn of what looks like a house instead of a church isn't all that common either. Nice find. |

I noticed that Maria posted a pic of this 'house' on page 3 of Papa Ted's Sharing Place. |

That is amazing. It is not the exact same house, but it is exactly the same design. Good eye and memory, Laurie. Lucy |
