Shedd Aquarium Chicago World's Fair 1933-34 Souvenir Paperweight Lead Metal Bldg

Description: Metal replica building for the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, Illinois. Not sure if these are officially called paperweights or just a decorative shelf-sitter. I believe this was made as a souvenir for the Chicago Worlds Fair 1933-1934 and is made of lead metal. Hallmarks: Rear marked "© CS" Dimensions: 1.5" tall x 3-1/8" wide x 3.75" long Condition: Excellent giftable condition. Patina is consistent and not showing mentionable issues. Faded underside felt, both conditions commiserate with age and use. No pings, dings, dents, bashes, flat spots, carbon spots, gouges, unusual scratches, or other blemishes. Unpacked weight: 11 oz. Always happy to pass through discounts on combined shipping. I only charge actual postage, and always use recycled packing materials. Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles. On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views. I gladly accept returns, but please note I do not pay return postage unless there was a significant error in my description. The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. All dimensions and weights approximate. If you have a question or an assumption on an item prior to purchase, please ask. I much prefer to take the time on the front end to make sure you will be satisfied with your purchase. Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
