@Nation Wide Lines posted:Don,
I saw your post and set out to find some of these.
In my search, I first found this pond.
It is unmarked, but similar enough to the rock mounds, that I suspected it may have been made by the same manufacturer.
Finally, I found some of the rock mounds.
In finding the rock mounds, I discovered the manufacturer of both the rock mounds and the pond. These items were made by T. Cohn Inc. and are often confused as Superior Toys as the T. Cohn Inc. used the following slogan "Another Superior Toy by T. Cohn"
The rock mounds were included in 3 different western playsets that they made, the Fort Superior, Fort Comanche, and Fort Apache sets that they made in the 50s and 60s. The rock mounds are designed for the plastic indians/cowboys to hide behind.
The pond, was labeled as a duck pond in the farm set that they sold.
I also found a picture on-line of a swimming pool that used the same stamping as the pond and was included in a doll house set that they made.
Now I need to find some ducks for the pond.

I found one of the swimming pools, which will be placed behind one of my Lionel Mansions or Villas.
I just need to make a diving board and ladder for the pool, as the base is stamped for these accessories, but mine was missing them.
I also have some ducks/swans coming for the pond. Will post photos of it after they arrive.
