Two Mistakes at This County Fair Ribbon Desk

This county fair ribbon desk shows entry forms, rosette ribbons, a stamp pad, twine, prize envelopes, and fair paperwork. Two small materials do not belong.

Two Mistakes at This County Fair Ribbon Desk

The Answer

The correct answer is: The two mistakes are the peel-off plastic ribbon-backing strip and the molded plastic envelope clasp..

Here is why

  1. The ribbons, paper entry forms, prize envelopes, stamp pad, and twine all fit the fair desk.
  2. Look under the rosette tails and near the old envelopes.
  3. The plastic backing strip and molded clasp are modern material clues.

Why people miss it

The desk already has ribbons, tails, ties, and paper corners everywhere, so modern plastic can hide in plain sight.
