Hello All,

I found this mystery piece at an old site where everything found was 1820-1840 (except for one modern ignition key).

It is marked "SVILLE KY" which has to be "Louisville, KY." The other side is stamped "J. BRIDO" (the piece is broken there). The last letter on this side could be an "O," but also perhaps a "G" or "C."

The circular piece at the end looks like it had an iron pin through it. The top of the circular end is solid:

The bottom of the circular end has a slit through which a piece of iron went:

Any help is much appreciated.



Best Wishes,

I'm sold on the actuator, old brass, steam-train steam-whistle actuator, sounds suitably romantic and actual :icon_pirat:

and - Hi GoldrushAu :thumbsup: Welcome to Tnet, they're All fairly Antipodean friendly here ;D
