Yes did not get into a lot of detail but the mission was painted. The match safe is like new, the vise is like new and the bear has substantial paint. The rest is typical. One more picture of the cast iron items.

Nice match safe. I need to find one to put on the log wall next to my wood stove. The two matching iron troughs look like bread pans.

That's what I thought Richard, but Brian says they're cast iron, so probably not.

I think they're bread pans. They're tapered, have a bottom that would leave a nice impression on the top of the bread and a longer lip on one end to pull them out of the oven with. Google "cast iron bread pan" and you tons of hits. Lodge makes one. Surprised me too as I've never seen an iron bread pan; apparently they're not unusual.

I shared this photo with another very knowledgable individual who collects anything Parker. He too has an example of these same items, and agrees that they are parts to an umbrella holder, but he does not have an example of a catalog containing one.

Has anyone any idea how those parts go together to make an umbrella stand? I can see the larger piece being a base but it would need some form of upright support that would hold the umbrellas vertical. Most that I've seen were tallish basket like thingies. My grandparents had one in their farm house that they used for canes(one v cool one that had a sword inside it!) and umbrellas.

They were the pan at the bottom of the umbrella stand to collect the water running off the wet umbrella.
