Yes, that's right, it's "The Philadelphia Inquirer 1960-1970".
It is traditionally believed that Bastian Bros. used the trademark "Whitehead & Hoag" until 1965.
To use this paperweight as an advertising tool (a promotional piece) in the 60s, declaring some growth, given that the period was not yet over - this is, let's say, too reckless.
But at the end of the specified period, as a confirmation of what is written, it is quite logical.
I believe that Bastian Bros. did not stop producing products using the trademark "Whitehead & Hoag" in 1965, some medals were issued in 1970.

Do you think the phrase "A Decade Of Growth" on the reverse could have been written at the beginning of the period, i.e. in 1960?
May be in the middle, i.e. in 1965?
Or is it more correct to consider that 'growth' can be discussed only in 1970, when this 'growth' can be confirmed in fact?
I am trying to establish the year of issue of the medal.
