[QUOTE="TheNickelGuy, post: 8179827, member: 20201"][B]1928 Tom Sawyer Washwear Good Luck Token [ATTACH=full]1429944[/ATTACH] [/B] A rather hard to find 1928 Tom Sawyer obverse with the common swastika reverse, Good Luck token. A little larger than a US quarter. This was in nasty corroded condition and I did what I could to conserve it short of taking away all the darker patina that remained. I don't feel I scratched it too much, but any further treatment would probably make it worse. It is improved anyway. I had higher hopes. Tom Sawyer Washwear was a brand of boys clothing that could withstand a beating with the boys playing in them. Mom used to say "Go put on your play clothes" after church or school before I could go outside. A Tom Sawyer magazine advertisement on left and a promotional calendar on right from days gone by.
