Wonder how many Holsteins were in the herd.
Interesting find.

This is a high-relief "antiqued" bronze corporate medal (or paperweight, maybe) from Barrett Chemical Corp. celebrating its centennial in 1954. Barrett became one of several components of the Allied Chemicals organization in 1920. An imposing piece at 75mm across and 6mm thick, from the Newark, NJ, medallists Whitehead & Hoag.



I never pay too much for my tokens...but every now and then I may buy one a little too soon.

New Orleans, LA. Ramos - Good for 10¢ in Trade. CF 6293 R/3-10. R10.
From Crawford and Farber: "Henry C. Ramos operated the Stag Saloon at 712-714 Gravier Street from the 1880s until 1918. An early advertisement touts his establishment as 'Home of the Original Ramos Gin Fizz.'"


Bartenders at Ramos's famous saloon in New Orleans, late 19th century. From: https://edible-series.blogspot.com/...in-fizz.html
Edit: The location is now a parking lot.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Thank you, Errers. I should have added that the location is now a parking lot.
