This & That

[The Rebel]

Got out yesterday to an old site that I haven't been to in years. The site is trashy, so I spent time away from the hole & was rewarded with these finds.

Pin says C.B. Manuf. Corp, if anyone can find out any info as to what this company made, I'd appreciate it, as I looked and came up empty.

The other piece looks like it was some kid's souvenir, says Philidelphia and what I guess were the kid initials AL.

HH!

I don't know anything but in the book, "American Military Button Makers and Dealers" there is a company listed as "Canfield, Brother and Co." Although most show
"Canfield Bro. & Co. Baltimore" (Button backmarks) Some show C.B, & Co. Baltimore. Dates listed are 1834-1880 and considering the numbers and writing it could be that time period.

Nice finds, I like those tags.

The '187' tag says CHESHIRE. Good chance it refers to Cheshire, CT. in the same area where you are.
I suggest you contact Diane Calabro, Cheshire's current town historian--or contact the Cheshire Historical Society.
Don in SoCal (once from New Canaan Ct.)
