Cenol Fly Destroyer printing plate

[Metal Headz]

Today I went back to a new area of woods I've started to search recently. Aside from digging bullets and shot gun shells I found this Cenol Fly Destroyer advertising printing plate. Odd find for the woods. Can anyone date this?



I took the picture using a mirror.

Very collectable item for those in the pest control industry

Thanks for the compliment haha my avatar is great, I've been using it for over 10 years.

I'm going to try to find more plates when I go back tmrw. Hopefully it's one of many to be found.

I think I found this exact plate used in a newspaper from July 25th 1924 (near the bottom).

Yea, older pest control product company.
Here are a few of their other products.
If it crawled or flew this company seemed like they wanted to kill it.

Haha thanks man, that was the only good thing I found that day. Finding printing plates is exciting. This one is my favorite out of the 3 I found last year.

Excellent plate recovery. Someone may have brought a a spray container of bug spray along on a camping trip.
Congratulations on the find.
