Wearp Posted April 15, 2014 Share #1 Posted April 15, 2014 I've been looking for a crusher for a while and found this one the other day. Has a nice flexible leather bill so it's an original crusher. I've searched the threads and can't decide if it's WW2 or post war. It is ID'd to Dogan E. Montgomery written on the card inside the lining . The card says, manufactured by, Gorden Manufacturing Co. louisville KY. Montgomery lists his address in Louisville as well. Thoughts? http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b169/ebhall/Stuff/imagejpg1_zpsffff009c.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b169/ebhall/Stuff/imagejpg2_zps3f840411.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b169/ebhall/Stuff/imagejpg3_zps56feb0a2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
