I like to "rescue" blocks that have been taken to 2nd hand stores or at the antique shops. I had these from a shop in Montana,and am going to put them in several different setting,( on point, in squares with Jacobs Ladder settings, etc.) I have plenty to work with as there were 30 huge blocks. Have no idea why they let them go.When finished they will go to the hospital and local hospice care centers.
