The H.J. Spieker Co. was a building contractor in Toledo, OH, best I can tell:

Looks like they were in existence in 1915, at least.

That wheatie is in nice shape. Never know what you're going to find!

Goes4ever,

Your tag seems to be part of a business tag. I am not sure weather it is from a mining business company, post office, or a hotel tag.

The tag reads:

The H.J. Spieker Co.

Upon researching your very awesome tag, I found some information. The company was or is located in Ohio. I do not know if it is still there. I found an article about a man who worked for H.J. Spieker CO.

Here is what the article stated:

-Adam Gideon Spieker passed away on March 03, 2007 at the age of 80. He worked with the fund regional gifts committee 1ERG. His last known home address was 450 Pine Villa Drive, Lantana, Fl. 33462-1220. His last known business address was H. J. Spieker Co., P.O. Box 23040, Toledo, OH 43623-0040-

There is the link to the article. it is 2/3rd's of the way down the page. I am assuming it may be from 1940's or 1950's considering it's age. Who knows though.

I hope this information was helpful in iding this tag.
