When the building was finally opened, everything found inside was exactly as it had been left when the tenement was sealed. During the recent restoration, over 1,500 artifacts were found in the building, including kitchenware, toys, cosmetic products, documents, soda, medicinal and milk bottles, letters, newspapers, bottons, old coins, fabric scraps, etc. Many of these objects were actually found underneath the floorboards and inside mailboxes.</FONT> <HR> <center> <a href="2ouiji.html"> <IMG SRC="gif/2ouiji.gif" Align=bottom></a> <a href="2pogs.html"> <IMG SRC="gif/2pogs.gif" Align=bottom></a> <a href="2teeth.html"> <IMG SRC="gif/2teeth.gif" Align=bottom></a> <a href="2tin.html"> <IMG SRC="gif/2tin.gif" Align=bottom></a> <a href="2shoe.html"> <IMG SRC="gif/2shoe.gif" Align=bottom></a><br clear><p> </center> <center><img src="gif/2ding3.GIF"><p> [ <A HREF="logcabin.html">Urban Log Cabin</A> | <A HREF="floorboards.html">Excavation</A> | <A HREF="virtual.html">Tenement VR</A> | <A HREF="eagle.html">History</A> ]<p> [ <A HREF="index.html">Contents</A> ] [ <A HREF="http://www.thirteen.org" target="_top">Thirteen Online</A> ]<p> </center>
