Father's Day Presents

[Mr Fixit]

Last night my wife and stepson brought home, among other things, unexpected Father's Day presents.

The first was a framed collection of metal tags from the blasting crew at a local mine.

The second was a lantern from the AT&SF, complete with etched glass railroad title "AT&SFRY" and in prime condition and full working order - just add oil and light!

Okay Happy Father's Day to my North American friends.

The railroad lantern I get that present, but whats with the blasting crew metal tags?
