I found today a salt shaker from I am guessing pre 1920 since that is what level I seem to be at in the dump.
It looks plated. On the underside there is "PAT APPL'D FOR-U.S.A." On one side and the "W B MTG CO 3103" on the other side.
It has some really cool engravings on the outside of the shaker. In its day I am sure it was an impressive looking piece. I imagine there was a matching pepper as well. Maybe I will find it some day.
We idling Brothers Manufacturing Co.
Here are some pictures.
The patina is really nice. I do not want to shine it up too much.
I am sure this would have more of a sentimental value than monetary but it does make a great conversation piece.
