old handle ID

[jobrian]

It's a handle, it's made of iron.Trying to figure out the name on the handle. It appears to have the name/word LAXOANDO or DAXCANOO, or some variation of those letters.

Maybe it says: Glaxo And Co.
Here's a Glaxo employee badge. Maybe this handle came from a container at the Glaxo Company.

Interesting find

Ok, after further inspection i believe it says LAXGAN CO. I have done various searches on the internet with no success. Anybody know of a company by this name? also, what else would this go to besides a trunk/chest?

I don't know what it says but it looks like the handle off a wash tub. You gave us no indication of size. How big/small is it?
