[QUOTE="ZoidMeister, post: 4841900, member: 114169"]Dang, I'm excited!. I just heard back from the Museum Director. This is what he said. [INDENT] [I]Gary, You have the medallion for a watch fob from the early 1900s. These were given to Round Oak salesmen or dealers (usually hardware store owners) as part of a promotion encouraging the sales of a large number of one product to join the Round Oak Specialization Concentration Club. This is only one part of the full piece—see attached image for the full item. Best, Steve Arseneau Museum Director [/I][/INDENT] I only wish I had EVERYTHING that made up this cool promotion / award that was given to my great-grandfather. Photos of the full monte below. I guess he was probably a hardware store owner, and not an employee of Round Oak. Z [CENTER] [ATTACH=full]1169478[/ATTACH] [/CENTER][/QUOTE]
