From the Sault Ste. Marie Museum:

*************************
What Did You Wish For?

Was it a leather doll carriage which was an extravagance in 1887 it would have cost about $1 or a China Tea set from the 1930s for those parties with your favorite doll.

Or was it a train set from the 1940s or a wooden sleigh from the 1930s for those carefree days of playing in the snow.
