Long Description
i purchased a old house full of antiques. im positive this is a ether mask as in the early 20th century my home was a doctors office. i have had the local historical society verify this and they wanted this and many other items i found in my home donated to the museum. but they are known for selling off items and most of the donations never get to the museum. the curator is a volunteer and he is not a honest man. so please look at the mask and i was hoping you could date it or possibly let me know the manufacturer so i will know more about this item. i find it morbid. thanks carl
