Dan,
When the war came around the government had them start making rifles. They went from typewriters to military rifles then switched back after the war.

The pen may be mightier than the sword, but I suppose that the rifle IS mightier than the type writer

Carlton, do you have any information on Frederic Stanley??? It didn't even dawn on me about other works that he had done (including Coca Cola). My dad and I own this ORIGINAL painting by Mr. Stanley (assuming he's the same Frederic with a "c") that was done in 1913 for the James Hanley Brewing Company. Back in the thirties, the painting was actually insured by LLoyds of London by the brewery.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Edited to ad that I wonder if this is the same artist. Born in 1892 would have made him 21 when he did the painting. Not impossible, but...

FINALLY got something new worthwhile posting. Picked this up at the Shriner's Show in Wilmington yesterday from Phil Castinetti at SportsWorld.

1904 Regular Season Scorecard proudly stating "World's Champions" from the 1st WS victory over Pittsburgh the previous year.
