The Union is a favorite of mine because of the shield on it, there are two known variants, the one you dug and a ladies leg variant. They were in business from 1905-09 at 126-130 Rairoad Ave., I also have an original crate dated 1909, it's one of my favorite pieces...

I am interested, maybe we can get together this week?? The 1913 is the date for the Brauns, I think they are found dated 1911-1917 and possibly later, I look forward to helping out.
