I must have about 15 to 20 paperweights, mostly like the kind in the middle with the hollow pocket for dice. (Sometimes, instead of dice, they have a compass or sand in the pocket.)
The top one I think is real. Too small to read in the scan, but the sign in the picture says " California Invites the World ... .... ... Panama-Pacific Exposition." The tower in the center has on it a sign "1915."
I wish the one in the middle were real, not a fantasy one. Maybe a post card was put inside under the mirror on the back. I can dream, eh? It says on it "El Rancho Vegas ... ... ... Round-Up Room." I got it in trade.
The one on the bottom has no dice.
