✅ SOLVED Could P.O. stand for post office/police officer?

[Nathan W]

Started soaking this and right away the P.O. started to show. It’s like that on both sides. Hoping it could be post office /police officer related, thoughts? I’m probably seeing what I want to see and being crazy.it it is. B than maybe it’s Peterbuilt . Found at bottom of overgrown civil war camp hill where I could swing a bit .

I started working with the post office in 1968. Searching my brain I could not recall anything like that. I've had the opportunity to view many older (than 1968) post office stuff. I never saw anything like that—just my .02 cents.

Ok thanks for your comment. I’m going to soak it longer and maybe more clues will emerge

PO is probably the company made for or made by.

Sometimes I have luck looking for things with search strings such as PO Manufacturing, PO Tools, PO Equipment. If it's an old item I'll add in Vintage in front of the search term, or add Metal or Iron etc in the search string.

Forgot to add, type it as PO marked metal/iron (whatever the metal is) tool or part or car part etc.

I was thinking along a different line. This is just a thought though. How about Pennsylvania / Ohio railroads ?

I convinced myself that it was railroad related, until I saw this.

Angry because that is the evil devise of the Devil that took one of my fingers, almost two, but they saved one. One might ask, well why would you stick your hand in there. I don't have any excuse, but I was only 3 years old.
