Janet found the at a Yard Sale yesterday for a $1 a piece

Anyone have any idea what the pictures might be.

Heavy, .75 pound each.

Any info is greatly appreciated...Doug

You probably already tracked down info on the Washington statue -- by sculptor, Thomas Bell, installed on July 3, 1869 in the Boston Public Garden. There are lots of images with different views on the internet.

The top one is interesting, but without a clearer image of the ships and/or names of the man or ships it will be a challenge to find more details.

Thanks Paul!  I think the second is inventors as I think I see Edison and AGB

Here are close ups of each.

Paul...You are correct on the Statue in the Public Gardens...much cleared with a flash.
Second looks like Inventors, but no caption.

Third is darkened with age, looks to be an admiral surrounded by ships
