I apologize for the bad photo quality. This bookend looks much better than it seems here.
I had this on my headboard, holding a few books over the last few months after buying it in a thrift store for three dollars.
Dug up some information on the internet via a great website dealing in beautiful Art Deco pieces. (www.decollect.com)
This was designed by Fred D. Farr for Revere Copper and Brass Incorporated in the mid-1930's. The scroll holds the books against the block and it also has a nice thermometer inside. ("West-O-Therm")
I really enjoy finding out the background of some of the pieces I find.

Decorated with fondant in graduating shades of pink. 4 flavours: chocolate brownie with whipped dark chocolate ganache, strawberry cake with white chocolate buttercream, vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream and raspberry preserves, and lemon cake with lemon buttercream and raspberry preserves. Royal icing scroll work overpainted with pearl lustre dust (took about 6 hours to pipe & paint!). Excuse the photo, the cake isn't leaning, it was on a wonky table!!!

Taken inside the daimyo's palace at Kakegawa Castle. That's a replica of Yamauchi Kazutoyo's armor,
Kakegawa Castle, strategically located along the old Tōkaidō Road in Shizuoka prefecture, is in the heart of one of Japan’s best tea cultivation centers. The peaceful atmosphere that prevails through the area wasn’t always so. Shizuoka prefecture used to be formally a part of Tōtōmi province, in a region known as the Enshū area, which was hotly contested by various warlords during Japan’s Sengoku warring states period that lasted from roughly 1477-1600. The first castle on the site of the present Kakegawa-jō was built in the late 15th century by Asahina Yasuhiro, a retainer of the house of Imagawa, which consolidated its hold over Tōtōmi during and after the Ōnin War (1467–1477). The Ashina continued to hold the castle on behalf of the Imagawa until shortly after their spectacular defeat at Okehazama in 1560. As the Imagawa faded into obscurity, Tōtōmi was carved into two spheres of influence controlled by the competing Tokugawa and Takeda families. The Ashina surrendered Kakegawa Castle to the Tokugawa in 1568.
After the Tokugawa switched fiefs and moved to the Kantō area in 1590, Kakegawa Castle was given by Toyotomi Hideyoshi to his retainer, Yamauchi Kazutoyo, who built up the castle and the town until he was given the domain of Tosa on the island of Shikoku following the battle of Sekigahara in 1600. Following the departure of the Yamauchi, various daimyo held the castle until it was given to the Ōta clan in 1746 who held it until the abolishment of the feudal system in 1872. The main keep that Yamanouchi Kazutoyo built was destroyed in an earthquake in 1604 and was rebuilt. However, another major quake rocked the region in 1854 and destroyed much of the castle, including the keep, which was not rebuilt. Following that quake, the daimyo at the time, Ōta Sukekatsu, rebuilt the wonderful ninomaru (second bailey) palace, which survives to this day. In 1994, using traditional methods and made of wood and stone (no concrete!).
This is a great castle and the ninomaru palace is just as equally fascinating. I highly recommend visiting this site if you are ever in western Shizuoka.

Scroll Saw Work, This one was fun.
20x28 scroll saw project, cut out painted and mounted on a piece of smoke tinted mirror, and the frame I made from crown molding...
I made a pendant from the The Imperial Symbol of the game Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. I hope people who love this game also love this pendant. On the top of the wings are two holes, so you can wear it like a pendant. The photo's are 3d printed in stainless steel. The pendant is double sided, both sides look the same. The picture shows the wrong way ;-0
It is available on shapeways shpws.me/3FPG

This scroll was given out at Twelfth Night by TRM Cedric and Elizabeth. It's a celtic knotwork/keywork pattern based on the carpet pages of the Lindesfarne and Book of Kells gospels, 8th-9th centuries. The outside text (in welsh) is a segment of the Y Gododdin. Pergamenata, 24k gold leaf, period pigments in gum arabic/honey size, and oak gall ink.
This ornate antique metal rim lock (or lock box) is one of the earliest types of door locks made in America. The lock is fastened to the face of the door, so the beautiful scrolls on its surface are visible.
Scroll Saw Work, This project, I made the pattern from three different pictures of this guys car and put it together on a 24x16 piece of 1/4" birch ply, then mounted this on a piece of smoke tinted mirror.
I loved working with these vibrant watercolor hues of peacock blue and citrus green. Josh and Naomi had a themed wedding, and the signing scroll was customized to coordinate with other wedding details.
Little personalised scrolls. The insides of these scrolls have been stamped with important words and dates.
Stamp the inside of these pretty scrolls with your Wedding date, how many years you've been married, intials or your children's names
This is a photograph from the Athlone 10KM and 5KM road races were held in Clonown Village, Co. Roscommon, Ireland on Sunday 26th of April 2015 at 14:00 and 14:30. Clonown is a small townland on the west bank of the River Shannon and is situated about 3 miles south of the town of Athlone. Whilst the townland is almost completely rural it is accessed easily from major routes and towns by the M6 motorway. The weather was perfect for today's race and participants enjoyed very warm spring sunshine. There was a slight breeze on certain parts of the course but overall it was a beautiful day for running. Over 200 people took part in both events.

This race was the fourth annual running of the vent. Every aspect of the organisation was professional: from stewarting, registration, start of races exactly on time, car-parking, and post race refreshments. The 10KM route followed an anti-clockwise loop. The race started on the L2035 Togher Road (about 100m from Clonown Centre - see here on Google Streetview goo.gl/maps/xWj3i) and heads towards the old Ballinasloe Rd (emerging here - see on Google Streetview goo.gl/maps/P6rE8) and back via Creggan (turning off the main road at this point - see Google StreetView goo.gl/maps/wCHT0) with the finish at the Clonown Community Centre. The course turns at this point [goo.gl/maps/7sa6u] to return to the finish. The stretch from the exit off the Old Ballinasloe Road to the Creggan turn off brings the race through wide open bogland areas used in the peat extraction industry.
The 5KM race route follows a different route around the townland. The race starts at the church in Clonown and head clockwise around the Ballinaculla townland which offers lovely views of the River Shannon. The route then goes to the Drumlosh road and runs for 1.5 km before the roundabout which is the 3km mark. The race then turns around and returns back to the village and finish at Clonown Community Centre. Both races share some of the race route for the Flatline Athlone Half held annually in September (www.athlonehalfmarathon.com/) which makes the race routes very fast and flat.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.

This is a photograph from the 4th annual running of the Donadea 50K Ultramarathon which was held in Donadea Forest, Staplestown, Co. Kildare, Ireland at 10:00 on February 15th 2014. The race was also an International Association of Ultrarunners Bronze Label Event and the Athletics Association of Ireland (AAI) National 50KM Championships. Over 160 participants took part in the event.
Don't forget to scroll down to see more information about the race and these photographs!

There is a full set of photographs available on our Flickr set at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157640976638143/
The event took place on a 5KM loop of Donadea Forest Park (read more below). The recent stormy and very wet conditions in Ireland made way for perfect running weather for the race. There was a slight breeze here and there on the route but for the most part the route was very sheltered. With so much running traffic on the course certain parts of the course became more muddy as time went on. However, this bother the participants who were expecting conditions to be much more difficult.
Congratulations to Anthony Lee of Donadea Running Club and Donadea Running Club for putting countless hours of voluntary effort into the staging of this event. The event has all the hallmarks of a professional event. There was a superb atmosphere around the loop as locals and other runners supported the runners.
Donadea Forest Park is situated in rural north Kildare and is approximately 640 acres in size. The amenities at the forest include good walking trails, a diversity of natural habitats, a walled stream, a large natural lake, and the ruins of Donadea castle. The Park is a designated National Heritage Area. The basic designation for wildlife is the Natural Heritage Area (NHA). This is an area considered important for the habitats present or which holds species of plants and animals whose habitat needs protection. It is a special event to allow the 50KM to be held in this environment.
