Yesterday, a deal was struck that has yet another 1903 Lowenstein patent corkscrew heading to the island.
Serving as an advertisement for HANCE BROS. & WHITE, PHARMCL CHEMISTS PHILADELPHIA, it will make a nice addition to the collection.
As mentioned the other day, here is the list of known advertisements on the Lowenstein patent:
“BAILEY’S H & C PURE RYE”
“CLARK, CHAPIN, & BUSHNELL’S EXTRACTS NEW YORK”
“FRANCIS H LEGGETT & CO. NEW YORK”
“F. WESTHEIMER & SONS, PLANET, SOUR MASH, ST. JOSEPH, MO”
“HANCE BROS. & WHITE, PHARMCL CHEMISTS PHILADELPHIA”
“HUMPHREY & MARTIN’S FINE WHISKEYS PHILAD“ (in yellow or tan)
“LEWIS 66 WHISKEY“
“PEARL WEDDING RYE”
“PEARL WEDDING SELECT WHISKEY”
“THE GREAT A & P TEA CO. EXTRACTS” (in red or yellow/tan).
Those in bold are ones that we have in the collection.
I would love to add others, and if you have one on the list, or better yet one that isn’t listed above, please drop me a line.
