Vintage TIN WATER SCOOP SCOOPER River Dipper 4-In Deep! - eBay (item 310031832744 end time Mar-20-08 19:18:05 PDT) This vintage tin water scooper or dipper was used to dip water from a river. It has a hollow handle to accept a wooden pole for a good long reach. There's no maker's mark.
There's much finish loss on the outside. Inside is still mostly shiny. In the bottom crease opposite the handle is a bit of rust and there are two minor dents in the side wall. The handle is solidly attached.

1990 25th Ed STEDMAN'S MEDICAL DICTIONARY Illus. HC! - eBay (item 310031821018 end time Mar-20-08 18:31:42 PDT)Stedman's Medical Dictionary must be good as it's been published over and over again since 1911. This big heavy green hardcover is the 25th Edition, Illustrated, published in 1990.
The front and back endpapers explain the setup of the book. Pages near front and back have creases where they got rumpled with the opening and closing of such a weighty book. There's slight crunching of upper pages at the front of the book and slight wear on the covers, otherwise it's bright and clean.

Vintage PAIR BRASS CANDLESTICKS 12.5-Inch Tall Spirals! - eBay (item 310031818009 end time Mar-20-08 18:16:33 PDT) This pair of brass candlesticks features spiral stems that are thicker at the bottom than at the top, square bases with feet and round cups with two grooved lines and bowls to catch the candle wax.
They stand 12 1/2 inches high, about 4 1/2 inches across the base and weigh over a pound apiece. Each stick unscrews into four pieces: base, stick, bowl and cup. There are some irregularities in the finish, especially on the bases. They don't appear to be absolutely straight.
