    Description

    This paperweight is a souvenir from the First Congregational Church in South Dakota that was erected in 1870.  It includes an image of the church and Joseph Ward, the first Pastor.  The text beneath the church reads, "The wood in this weight is taken from the pulpit platform of the old church."
    The paperweight's wood base measures 4 1/2" across.  The left side of the glass dome has an area that seems notched out.  It doesn't show any signs of being dropped and broken.  I'm not sure if it was made this way.  Please see the photos provided, as they're part of the description.
