This scarce lot includes [2] Chinese Exported items from the late-1800's to early-1900's.

The other is a hand carved exotic Chinese wooden bowl from the early 20th century, China. Ex-Ralph Yourtree collection. Mr. Yourtree was a high ranking U.S. military official that lived all over Asia on classified military business during the 1960's-90's. Throughout the years he had rented a climate controlled 10x30 storage unit in Missouri and over time had completely filled this unit with Oriental artifacts, ancient relics and all sorts of antiquities. His mother paid each month on this unit for around 30 years and passed away two years ago. The storage facility allowed the unit to be delinquent for well over a year because of the long length that this unit had stayed paid and rented, but eventually auctioned off the contents.
