Reader believes mystery item was decorative gate iron
We had a response from a reader on an item Dawn Lysaker uncovered while inspecting a new riverfront property.
This metal object measures 12” x 17” x 3⁄4”. The photo was published in last week’s Pelican Rapids Press, pictured again here.
Sending an email was Valerie Silva: “I saw the top photo on page two of the July 18 edition of the Pelican Press and I think it might be a decorative part of a gate.”
