1890's Andrew Wald Yellowstone Sand Art
Featured in this lot we have a Yellowstone sand art paper weight made by Andrew Wald originating from the 1890's. The piece shows the traditional bullet shape found in Yellowstone gift shops at the turn of the century. The glass is filled with multi colored sand set in swirling patterns similar to rolling hills or mountains. The piece shows a original tag on the plaster plug reading "From The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone Put Up By Andrew Wald". The souvenir piece shows very good condition with the paper tag showing some wear and the right far side missing. It measures 6" tall with a diameter of approximately 2".
