I found this printing plate/stamp or whatever it is today at an 1837 homestead. The print on it is reversed. I took a picture of it in the mirror so I could read what it says.

Anyone know what it is and when it would have been made/used?

It’s in the far left column on page 3. (Does it one to that page? I never know if newspaper links open to the right place?)

You have to have a subscription to view it ..can you post a screen shot?

I don’t have a subscription, and can’t enlarge it, but just see that it’s there.
Lets see if I can do the screen shot thing...

As blurry as this is it was found using the text from the free offer at the bottom of the ad, which matched up.
