Iron / Tin

Pawling
& Harnischfeger Cast Iron Plaque This
firm was organized in the 1880's and only lasted a few years before one of the
original partners passed, but their cast iron plaque lives on.
Very nice condition, and measures approx 12" long and 8" tall. A Google search turned up pages of info on the company and both of its founders.

Otis
Elevator Cast Iron Plaque This
firm was organized in the 1880's.
Very nice condition, and measures approx 10" long and 8" tall. This one originates from the Pacific Coast Division as can be seen. They
needed to hire a graphics layout person, as it is laid out a bit funny as can be
seen.

R. B. Hayden Whiskey Brass Advertising Sign This brass
sign just needs a little paint job to return to its former beauty. It is
solid brass and is dent free and in pretty nice condition overall. It
measures approx 16" x 24". It is engraved on stock that is about
1/8" thick. R. B. Hayden were the folks who produced "Old Grand
Dad" whiskey. From what I have read the original founder got his start
back in the late 1700's making Whiskey in Kentucky out in the woods.
He passed the tradition down to his son or grandson R. B. Hayden, who later
called his concoction "Old Grand Dad". This is a very nice
sign and piece of early advertising.

Sunbeam
