Shotgun shell 1880-1932.JPG

W.C. Co was bought out by Olin Winchester in around 1930 so I'm guessing this predates that. Fun find in a very junky area. Thanks Garrett Pro Pin-pointer this was an "extra" from an old junk iron hole. this ghost town has a history of fast cash fast women. 27 bars and brothels for a town with only 75 residents. Lot's of fighting and shooting going on around 1900.
