it’s not just an old paint can! Just as any collector, hunting for something to collect is half of the fun of collecting. I was in an old paint store over 20 years ago when I noticed an old can sitting on the shelf with great old graphics. Being in the billboard business, I used paint on a daily basis and had never thought of the lowly paint can. I continued to look around the store and noticed an old Sherwin Williams cover the earth sign, then another old sign with a boat, advertising Woolsey paint. At this point I was hooked and thought this is for me.
From the 1800’s to the early 1950’s, there were many paint companies throughout the US. While Dutch Boy was the largest known company, there were many smaller regional companies such as John W. Masury & Son, Vitralite and Kyanize. These regional paint companies were normally close to larger cities. Paint companies often had different paint can shapes, plus logos were very creative and detailed.
Great Early Paint Cans
Going from antique shop to flea market, I would ask for old paint cans, especially gallons. Of course the strange looks I got, as well as laughs were common. They seemed to be plentiful at first and then I branched out, as usually happens, to collect anything related to paint. I quickly found that there was plenty out there and I needed to be more focused on what I purchased. I decided to collect the gallon cans with great graphics and only purchase smaller cans with colorful graphics when I found them.

it’s not just an old paint can! Dutch Boy was best known for its “White Lead” paint. Up until the 1950’s paint needed to be mixed and was something the home owner could not do himself. You could not go to Lowes or Home Depot and get a can like you do today. Large Victorian homes required “professional painters” who could mix & tint the paint to the home owner’s wishes. From canvas wall banners to store displays Dutch Boy was marketed to painters.
The white lead paint came in pails with bail handles and were extremely heavy, from 16 to 26 pounds per gallon. Mixing lead paint meant that you needed a larger bucket to pour the white lead paint into and stir in oil and thinner called for by formulas. If you wanted a color, the painter would have to add tubes of tint. It was suggested you add raw umber to improve the final appearance. Complete handbooks on mixing paint were offered at the local hardware store. While “professional painters” were mixing and painting the outside, other manufacturers were busy making premixed paints for floor finishes and inside enamels to the “do it yourselfer”. Paint companies like Chi-Namel offered ready to use grain staining and varnish for floors, doors and furniture during the “Oak Period”. No matter what product they were offering, the advertising had amazing graphics. There was specialty paint for barns, stove pipe, cars, trains, floors, screen, blackboards, baskets, carriages, boat paint and even wicker furniture. Competition between paint companies was fierce. They gave away a huge amount of window displays, posters, free giveaways, samples and even children’s toys.

it’s not just an old paint can! Country store windows often had animated displays to catch a customer’s eye as they passed. This Dutch Boy store display below was mechanical and the ball on the string would wrap around the flag pole several times then swing back balanced by the wooden ball on the other end. The middle picture of the Dutch Boy had a different message on the back side and would spin as the ball moved back and forth.

it’s not just an old paint can! Paint companies advertised to women, men and even children to buy their paint. They used large counter displays, shelf signs, large 3-D painters, paint sample signs, paint cabinets, paint shelves and even celluloid over cardboard signs to get you to buy their paint. There were a huge number of giveaway items including paperweights, toys, pocket mirrors, and puzzles to name just a few. These were often tossed in a drawer and were forgotten about and never used. Many people could not read, so pictures were important to show how the paint was to be used. Smiling, happy people were shown painting cars, furniture, boats and even stove pipe.
These 3-D displays were for brushes, but also held a can of paint.
The iconic Dutch Boy has stood the test of time with several updated looks. Today the Dutch Boy character is still used. Wall paint color samples were offered to customers by Breinig’s Ready Mixed Oil Paint. Pittsburgh Plate Glass Co. offered customers colors of their lacquer using spindles.

it’s not just an old paint can! From paper to porcelain signs, paint companies wanted you to be impressed with their paint. Porcelain signs had as many as 6 colors and had images of tigers, boats, raccoons and trains. Large signs, small signs, inside or outside, paint companies wanted your business. These porcelain signs have withstood the test of time and their product.
Unfortunately with time, all of the smaller regional companies were purchased by larger companies. Much of their history and advertising is gone. However, collectors can still find these pieces of history to enjoy. No matter whether you collect small paperweights or signs, these companies live on with us!

how to learn about collecting Collecting is one of the greatest hobbies in the world. Families can enjoy it together, you can meet great people, you it can get exercise, you can add a warm, comfortable feel to your home and have something that your friends will “wow” over. Then it happens! You purchase a reproduction piece that you were told was real. Don’t be disillusioned and quit…just get informed. No matter how long you have been collecting, you will be fooled, it happens to the best of us. Perhaps it is an innocent mistake by the seller who did not know. In that case a reputable seller will take it back and refund your money. Buying from reputable dealers at antique shows, is a great way to add pieces to your collection. Don’t forget to visit local antique shops and watch for dealers who are stocking their booth. Strike up a conversation with the dealer, look around his booth to see if there is a piece you may want information on and ask. Find out if they know of other shops in the area who may have what you are looking for. Be sure that you check out the mobile friendly Antique Shop directory on www. AntiqueBack Roads.com. There are over 100 antique shops, shows and clubs with directions right to their doors. Flea markets and yard sales are a great places to shop, but remember there are no guarantees. Rule of thumb, if it too good to be true, it probably is…so just pass it by. When buying from an auction house on line be sure to read the ‘Terms of the Auction” to see if it tells you how the auction house would handle a reproduction. If you can get to the auction, by all means go. It is a place to have the opportunity to see and touch a wide selection of pieces and a place for a wonderful education. With the popularity of selling on the web, more and more reproduction pieces are being sold. Pictures can sometimes be deceiving and if you combine that with someone who does not have a background in collecting what happens? Be sure to ask if they will guarantee what you are buying is an old original. Ask if when you receive it, if it is not an original, if you can return for a full refund. At the present time, there is ONLY ONE on line marketplace, which sells only vintage items before 1980. Icollect247.com sellers do not offer crafts, limited editions or reproductions.

postcard collecting - rewarding - educational - inexpensive We all have passions in our lives; cars, sports, cooking, etc. My passion? Collecting Postcards. I won’t say how many I have, but after 15 years of collecting and selling, I would say, “quite a few”. Collecting postcards is a rewarding, educational and a relatively inexpensive hobby. Also, the more you know about the hobby and its history, the more fun the hobby can be. The range of Topics and Categories available in collecting is vast. Many people collect postcards as a part of their heritage, or a pictorial record of the way we once lived, styles of dress, etc. There are probably as many reasons to collect postcards, as there are collectors.
There are many hundreds of postcard publishers today. Older publishers include Raphael Tuck, Stengel, Curteich, Brunner are some of the publishers that are popular with collectors. Some collectors collect only publishers, others by date, trains, holidays, railroads, political or famous people. Back in the early 20th century, long before computers and cell phones were the norm, postcards were our “e-mail”. The letter carrier stopped 3-4 times each day and postcards were cheap. Costing only a mere penny to mail. We could send a card across town in the morning asking a friend to dinner. It would arrive at noon in plenty of time to confirm the date. Maybe you’re wondering, “when did this Postcard thing start?” Well, back in 1861 the first copyright for a U.S. postcard was issued to John P. Charlton. In 1873 the first U.S. Government postcard was issued. They were pre-stamped, (1 cent) and had undivided backs. (Color postcards were produced starting in 1893).
An “Act of Congress on May 19, 1898” authorized private printers and publishers to product their own postcards but required the term “Private Mailing Card” to be included on the card. Today they are called, PMCs. This requirement discontinued in 1907. Maybe your first thought is: “What should I collect”. I usually suggest EVERYTHING. After a period of time you may develop a particular interest in a topic or style and you’re on your way. Why not get the kids involved? Maybe for a school project? It’s fun, inexpensive and a great way to learn about different sites, cites and customs of the World. Don’t forget it is history that will never been seen in books, as the way we lived, how we dressed and our heritage.

Whatever BecAme Of? – Part II - Later Years
Royal Rochester In 1931, the Royal Rochester line of “Royal China” was guaranteed “never to break, craze, or mar in any way from heat or cold or vice-versa.” The most popular items of this ware were casseroles, coffee percolators, coffee urns with creamers and sugars to match the sets, and waffle irons in sets or singly with matching batter bowl, ladle and syrup pitcher. With the sudden demise of the Fraunfelter Company in 1939, and the unavailability of metal during the war years, put this company in a death spiral from which it never really recovered. After the war was over, they did produce a line of metal electric appliances, but never again did they produce the wonderful line of Royal China ware.
China Marks When they first started producing their china appliances, RR imported very simple pieces from Germany but moved on to “jobbing” companies in the US to produce their china ware, namely Guernsey, Buffalo Pottery, The Ohio Pottery Company (Petroscan), Steubenville and Pope-Gosser. All these marks can be found on early pieces, but in the end Fraunfelter China Company was the one who produced all the lines that are well-known today in the collecting world. It has never been firmly established who applied the decoration to the ceramic pieces. My feeling is that Fraunfelter did that job and then shipped the finished pieces to Robeson Rochester to be fitted with their electrical parts, but that is still conjecture.

Dating Your Royal Rochester Appliances Rochester Stamping Company started the use of a date code number on the bottom of all of their electrical appliances. Unfortunately this code was not used on any of their other pieces. This date code continued to be used by Robeson Rochester until the late 1930’s. The code consisted of a single letter, followed by a two digit number. The letters were A, B, C, or D. This was the “quarter” of the year. Thus “A” was Jan, Feb or March. “B” was Apr, May or June. “C” was Jul, Aug, or Sept. “D” was Oct, Nov, or Dec. The two digit number was the year of manufacture. Thus “29” would be 1929.
Always Check for Condition Issues Before You Buy! Be careful that the cord you have matches the prongs in the appliance. Check your appliance under the band at the top; you might see a stress/heat crack.

History of the ingle system scrip register “You load sixteen tons and what do you get, another day older and deeper in debt” …and so goes the song… “I owe my soul to the Company Store.” Tennessee Ernie Ford sang it well, but folks who were indebted to the “Company Store” sang a much more somber tune. We learn from our early American history that many companies were located in remote areas and that the “company” often provided their employees with housing and the proverbial “Company Store”. The “store” was a mixed blessing. It provided for the workers basic needs, but at a price: The “Company” price. Sort of a take it or leave it scenario for this captive audience. So they had you coming and going as the saying goes, and since no one wants to leave the Store hungry or for want of basic provisions, you paid the price. While “Sixteen Tons” provides some insight into the indentured patron’s plight, it is an extreme example of how these “Company Stores” conducted their ruthless business, with the indentured workers typically subsisting payday to payday, always in debt to the Company Store, perpetually in need of credit. In a much more free-market environment far removed from remote Company Store monopolies, for many General Stores, Country Stores and Grocery Stores, issuing credit was also widely practiced. Since many goods and provisions were acquired on credit the store proprietor also had to be an accurate accountant, maintaining each patron’s ledger, itemizing all the goods they purchased, and the price. A tedious task at best! Many stores carried on their commerce with their own personalized scrip, in part since U.S. coins
Page 10
and currency were not always available in some locations, or because the Company paid you in their scrip which could be only spent at their Company Store. In time, counterfeiting of scrip became an increasing problem with merchants experiencing monetary losses. Eventually, enterprising grocers David, Edwin and Wesley Ingle patented their own scrip. And since it was patented now it would be a Federal crime if counterfeited. Given that deterrent, their Ingle Scrip System spread in popularity amongst retail merchants from about 1909 through the 1920’s. The Ingle brothers not only produced and sold personalized scrip, but also a dispensing register as well. These registers dispensed 1, 5, 10, 25, 50 cent and dollar denomination scrip. And while the six denominations of scrip were patent protected, the Ingle Register was the heart of the system, and is the focus of this article. Most of us are familiar with the elaborately designed shiny brass cash registers of the day. However, few of us have ever come across an Ingle System Register, and, if we did, we were hard pressed to understand what we were looking at. I experienced this scenario first hand when I purchased an Ingle Register in 2014, and I invested several months researching and understanding its purpose. It was not until I acquired an obscure publication “A Check List and Aid to Attributing Ingle System Scrip” did I fully understand how it was employed.

History of the ingle system scrip register While the “Check List” sole intent was to identify and catalog Ingle System Scrips, the author also explained the role of the Ingle Register: Its purpose was to simplify credit accounting. So instead of the merchant recording every item purchased on credit they would simply dispense the amount of the patron’s credit request in the form of personalized scrip only negotiable at that store. So if a patron needed say $10 in credit they would sign an IOU and receive the scrip.
To dispense the coin-like scrip the merchant would simply push in and pull out the horizontal slides to deliver them. A bell would ring each time. We can speculate this audible ringing was a deterrent to unauthorized scrip dispensing or perhaps its intent was to emulate the ring of a typical cash register. The Register top has individual denomination slots to load the scrip into their respective columns. When the scrips were spent at the store the merchant would simply drop them through their slots to refill the columns. It is highly likely the drawers were meant to house backup stock of scrip and perhaps IOU’s.
50, 25 and 10 Scrip
From what I can determine, it appears that the Ingle System Register was available in several models. The one I acquired is comprised of a wooden cabinet with two locking drawers, a two sided metal marque and metal columns that held the stacks of scrip. Its dimensions are 11 3/4 inches high, 12 1/2 inches wide and 10 1/2 deep. An internet search uncovered a taller 22 inch version, same width and depth, with a larger third drawer, and one with a marble or glass slab like those typically seen on cash registers.
Marque on the top of the System
After a short-lived run of perhaps two decades the winds of change obsoleted the need for Ingle System Registers. And, given their less durable and desirable wooden cabinets, they lacked the lure and longevity of their elaborate brass and nickel plated cash register counterparts, making them a rarity. For the Ingle System Scrip collector, finding and filling an Ingle System Register with scrip sporting their own surname is apt to be a very satisfying pursuit.

The Making of a nascar collector You either have it, or you don’t. I believe there is no in between. I am talking about a bug that is called collecting. It can be caught from parents, from a deal that you cannot pass up, or just something you think is cool or neat. Once you have the bug, it is hard to shake, and for most of us, we don’t have a desire to shake it. I caught the collecting bug from my parents. I guess my mom was the one that started it all when she gave my dad a Coca-Cola truck for Christmas one year, which lead the family to our first Coca-Cola convention. The year was 1986, and we had so many carryons for the airplane ride home we would have never made it through security today. Mine started innocently enough. After school on a typical Friday, we loaded the Suburban and left for Pennsylvania with our flash lights ready. If you remember getting up before the sun came up to look for treasures at Renninger’s, I feel for you. While mom and dad were looking for CocaCola items, I looked also. Sometimes I saw something that they did not, so “eagle eye” nick-name came about. I looked at car models, comic books, and bought when I saw something I liked. I noticed various prices on GI Joe dolls and vehicles. They were harder to find than comic books, but looked interesting. I bought my first GI Joe and that is when the collecting bug bit me. I collected for a number of years, and had some really neat playsets, vehicles, and dolls when I decided to sell. When I sold, prices were going up, and I felt it was time to move on. I always loved going to the toy store when I was a kid, and still do with my son. Once the state of Virginia saw fit to give me my driver’s license, I took weekly trips to Toys R Us in Salisbury, Maryland to browse. Racing Champions started making die-cast 1:64 scale NASCAR cars in 1989. There were
Page 12
quite a few drivers made, and as usual with a new production, errors were common. There were wrong manufactures on the cars, wrong sponsors, and even wrong drivers. I had followed NASCAR for a few years, so I could tell which was right and which was wrong, but I bought all I could find and that started my current collecting habit, NASCAR items. Since that time, my collection has grown from cars that you can put in your pocket to race used parts and driver’s uniforms. Through the years I have become a Darrell Waltrip fan, and if you look at my office, you can tell. I also collect NASCAR advertising and toys from the 60’s, 70’s & 80’s. Many items during that time period were givea-ways and either tossed or put on a shelf somewhere. Autographed items from drivers are always a great find for me, also. With the autographed items, they usually are not certified, as the best place to get these were at the track, and some autographs were received before anyone worried about copies! My first in person autograph was something special. Of course I was given some in the past, mainly by my Dad when he attended a race, but I will always remember my first. Huge inside car shows were the thing in the 80’s, where you saw custom cars that were never driven on the road, movie and TV cars that we watched every Friday night. They usually brought a celebrity to draw people in. I begged my Dad to take me to the Civic Center in Salisbury, had to be in the winter of 1985 or 1986, so I could meet Darrell Waltrip. I am not sure how long the line was, even if there was one. Darrell was kinda mouthy back then and not many people liked him. There may have not been a line, I don’t remember, but I do remember getting my hat signed by him and Dad taking the Polaroid photos above. I still have that hat today,

The Making of a nascar collector along with other hats that Dad and Mom got me through the years. With the retail sponsors of auto racing, most memorabilia has dual collectability. Through the years, Darrell has driven for Gatorade, Mountain Dew, Budweiser, Tide, Western Auto, and Kmart. Since he drove for Mountain Dew, his cars and such are also collected by soda collectors. Same with Budweiser as these items appeal to beer enthusiasts. So it would not be surprising to have race car memorabilia in your Coca-Cola collection, as they have been a major sponsor to different teams throughout the years! Now my home and office walls hold autographs, uniforms, plastic models and car parts. Collecting for over 30+ years has been fun and I have met many great NASCAR fans.
I hope that someday I can have the opportunity to meet Darrell again and relive the first time I got his autograph. Yes, I have the bug as anyone who comes into my home or office will attest to that fact. I enjoy talking to other NASCAR collectors and if you have something for sale would like to hear from you. email: jamie.davis1439@gmail.com
