Any Help about Hiawatha Tag

[shane41]

Found this tag in the land in back of the steel warehouse I use to work at. They have about 10 acres of land they never build on. Back in the early 50 when they bought the land it was a farm field. There are railroad tracks that run along this land. I am starting to check out some of the acreage as they gave me permission to metal detecting it. I worked there from 1961 to 2002 and all they did was cut the grass on this empty land.
Any help about this tag would be appreciated.... I know the Hiawatha trains ran on these rail tracks years ago. Shane

Hiawatha was a maker of bicycles. I believe this one is from one of their bicycles.

Thanks Jeff . I checked into it. I found the same metal tag on a Hiawatha bike on E bay that was made in the early 1950's. Appreciate your info. Shane
