Mss1996.62.A10","This item is an example of a Chatelaine, a piece of functional jewlelry that gained popularity starting in the 18th century. The word Chatelaine was originially used to describe the lady of the castle. These ladies would be dressed in clothing that did not have pockets. In order to carry around any items they may need around the castle the ladies wore metal hooks on their waist from which they suspended things like keys, scissors, and thimbles with small chains. Chatelaines could range from the mundane to the spectacular. Some were encrusted with jewels or filigree. Beginning in the 19th century, the Chatelaine became a popular fashion item due to easy mechanical manufacturing. Both men and women now wore them with an assortment of items from knives to perfume to eyeglasses hanging from them. For women of the time, their crinoline dresses would have helped disguise the bulk of the items, but the weight was considerable. This particular piece is estimated to date to around the 1850s, although no identifying marking could be located on it. The main piece of the Chatelaine is the clip, which is adorned here with a small bird on a tree building a nest. The clip then has five connection points for chains. The five chains on this piece are made with circular links alternated with thicker three banded links. At the end of three of the chains are small hooks, with one additional chain missing its hook. The last chain terminates with a springsteel keyring. The main body of the piece is brass with silver plating, and the whole piece is covered in a pot metal coating. It is thought that this piece may be of German origin; however, Chatelaines were quite popular in Britain during this time period as well, and without the presence of any manufacturing marks, the exact date and origin of this piece are hard to determine.

The chain uses a pattern of two large oval links separated by five small circular links. The clasps on the chain are steel.

This particular box was manufactured by the Old Virginia Cheroots Company, and is interesting because it includes a dropfront. The dropfront would allow the storeowner to display the cigars in the actual box. This however required that the lid be hinged, as this one is. One can even see the remnants of the ribbon used to hold the lid from falling when opened. Most owners eneded up nailing dropfront boxes to make them more useable, making boxes which retain their original dropfront slightly more rare. The lid of the box shows a pricing of 3 for 5 Cents, and is crossed by an official Tobacco stamp to prove the proper taxes and fees had been paid, The mascot for the company is an elderly black man, and his image takes center space on the lid. Attached to the lid is what appears to be a promotional notice that says six five cent packages of Sweet Caporal Cigarettes are included free. The dropfront of the box warns consumers to beware imitations lacking their trademark and the signature of P. Whitlock. The bottom of the box was burnt with the stamp Factory No 85, 3d Dist.

This naptha-fueled lighter was carried by soldiers on all sides during WWI. The lighter is composed of three main sections. First we have the flint wheel, which is connected to the lighter and includes a knurled knob at one end with which a steel spring could be raised higher if the flint began to wear down. The second major component is the body of the lighter, a cylinder which would have ended in a small keyring (which is no longer present). The last major component is the wick, which is made of a yellow fiber and is connected to a chain which ends in a tiny metal ball. To extinguish the flames on these lighters the keyring on the bottom would be pulled, pulling the wick into the naptha, but closing off the air supply with the tiny metal ball. The lighter is heavily rusted, but the flint wheel can still be spun, a rarity in lighters of this age. This lighter was likely the personal possession of Channing M. Hall.

The term aide-mémoire was used to descirbe a small notepad or book which one carried in order to remember important dates, events, etc. The cases of the Memoires are composed of a silvery lustrous metal. On the front of the Memoire are three raised emblems. The central emblem is that of the U.S. Naval Academy. In the lower right hand corner is another naval symbol, with an eagle perched ona ships wheel with crossed sword behind. In the upper left hand corner is yet another naval symbol of an eagle perched on a ship's bell with crossed oars behind it. One of the most intriguing aspects of these pieces is the closing mechanism. A small metal pencil is attached to the right hand side of the memoire. While the pencil is inserted, the book stays closed, but when removed it is \"unlocked'. The Penicls are mechanical and will dispense more graphite if twisted clockwise. The top spine of the memoire features a loop which is attached to a blue and gold cord (extant on only one of the aide-mémoires). The front of the book proper contains a small page commemorating the farewell ball, which took place at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The second page features a small color picture of a girl dressed in a navy pea coat carrying a small holly tree. The following pages are filled with the different dances that were played that night, as well as the title of the song and the composer. The owner of one of the aide-mémoires wrote down multiple \"Xs\" beneath the titles of the song, it is unknown what this was indicating. Later, the owner also writes several names down beneath the dances, probably the names of her partners. After the dance pages is another picture of a pea coat clad girl, but this time she's looking out of an open porthole. The next page lists all of the members of the Farewell Ball Committee. The last page reveals that the owner of the aide-mémoire was Emily M. Hall, and also gives her address. Subsequent pages are blank. Of the two notepads, the aide-mémoire with the tassle and writing within was clearly handled more. It shows some patina as well as a general dulling of the metal. The second aide-mémoire shows little signs of aging save some patina near the hinge. Transferred from the Hall Family Papers (Mss. 90 H14). Located in Dec Obj S2 SS2, Box 3.

The NLWS was a volunteer organization based in the U.S. that became a valuable resource during WWI. The members of this group were sometimes part of the Motor Corps, which supplied drivers for things like ambulances and military supply trucks. With the ever growing transportation network of the NLWS the military became more efficient at moving troops and in the event of massive industrial accidents, the NLWS would provide the ambulances needed to save lives. Any woman wearing this pin, in or out of uniform, was considered to be acting on the behalf of the NLWS. This league was the only option for women looking for a way to contribute to the war effort.

The face of the coin features George Clinton, Governor of New York at the time and a personal freind to Thomas Machin, owwner of the mint which produced the coins. Machin's Mills, the mint which produced the majority of these coins, also produced counterfeit British coins. At the time (roughly 1787-1788) the mint at Machin's Mills began producing \"mules\" copies of British coins with either very basic copies of the reverse; or another pattern in use at the time (usually Vermont, Connecticut, or New York reverses). To keep out the prying eyes of children workers at the mint are said to have worn frightening masks to scare them away. The counterfeiting operation must have been somewhat successful because Machin's Mill lasted longer than even the official Mint of New York.

The company to which the State of Connecticut had initially offered its minting rights to was to produce around 1.4 Million Connecticut coppers from the copper that had been delivered by the State legislature. When the company was investigated, it was found that nearly 3 million coins had been produced underweight and were thus illegal. In addition to these now devalued coins, multiple counterfeits were also in circulation, mainly due to the efforts of James Atlee, a man who was tied to minting in Connecticut, New York, and Vermont. Many of the colorfully identified coins in this group, including so called, \"Laughing Head\" \"African Head\" and \"Mutton Head\" varieties are counterfeits of the legal version of Connecticut Coppers.

Unlike other states during the Confederation Period, Massachusettes developed a state mint rather than offering contracts to private organizations (which had resulted in counterfeiting in several other states). The design that was used for the face of the coins (that of an Indian with bow and arrows) was adopted from Militia buttons; the reverse of the coin features an eagle. The dies used for the 1787 and some 1788 coins were made by Joseph Callendar, a student of Paul Revere. Of particular interest in this group is a 1787 prototype of the cent. The reverse of the coin features the standard eagle, but the arrows appear in the left talon rather than the right, as it it featured in subsequent cents. Also included in this group is a 1788 Cent whose reverse has been retooled to be a tree, a reverse which can be found on the replicas of the 1776 halfpenny included with this group.

Like many of the other New England states, the state of New Jersey sold the rights to mint coppers to a company of private individuals. Just as in the case of New York, Connecticut, and Vermont; New Jersey's private mint soon found itself split by internal strife and a lack of income. In the case of New Jersey the minting company split, with one comapny resorting to counterfeiting currency to remain financially solvent; while the other soon cold their equipment to Machin's Mint and dissolved. Nearly all of the coins bare the same face and reverse. The face shows the head of a horse, a plow beneath it, the date to the right, and the words NOVA CASAREA (the latin from which New Jersey derived its name. The reverse of these coins feature a shield with 13 stripes surrounded by the familiar phrase E PLURIBUS UNUM.

The 1739 8 Reales coin is a cast of a \"Pillar\" type coin, so named for the two pillars on the obverse, not a period orignial. Two slides are also included with the cast. Another coin in this collection is the 1861 8 Reales coin. This original coin was minted in Guatemala and bares a portrait of Ferdinand VII on the obverse with the words DEI GRATIA (By the Grace of God). The reverse shows the two Pillars of Hercules surrounding the Spanish Crown and Coat of Arms, as well as the words HISPANIA ET IND REX (Ruler of Spain and the Indies). The coin is in good condition. One of the oldest coins in this collection is a 4 Reales coin, which was minted in Mexico City and dates to the Rule of Charles I of Spain. Charles united the kingdoms of Castille and Aragon into the Spanish empire, which was built on the wealth of the New World. The obverse features the Pillars of Hercules surrounding the number 4, which reveals the coin's denomination. The reverse features the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Castille and Leon; but not the coat of unified Spain which also features the heraldic symbols of Aragon and Navarre. This is typical of coins minted during this period, as Charles' mother, Joanna, was the Queen regent. It is in worn condition. The final coin in this group is an 8 reales coin, which is most likely a forgery. This 8 Reales coin appears to date from the reign of Philip II, but the reverse of the coin may reveal a different origin. The reverse features a representation of the Arms of Castile and Leon, but unlike the actual coat of arms featured on real Spanish coinage of the period, the lion and castle featured on the arms are reversed. Rather than having the lion in the lower left and upper right corners, they are in the lower right and upper left. The coin is marked with a visible P, indicating an origin in Lima, Peru or Potosi, Brazil.

The reverse features an image of a ship bound for the word AMERICA, which is framed by the words THANKS TO THE FRIENDS OF LIBERTY AND TRADE. The second piece, the Pitt farthing, features the same design, only slightly smaller. These tokens were minted in celebration of the repeal of the British Stamp Act. William Pitt had been a strong opponent of the Act and went so far as to accompany Benjamin Franklin to London to speak against the act in Parliament.

One interesting specimen is a 1795 Washington grate Halfpenny, which was minted and used in Britain at the time. Grate halfpennies such as this one were minted as a part of a promotion for a fireplace grate manufacturing company. Another pair of interesting specimens are the North Wales Halfpennies. These halfpennies were minted in Birmingham as \"evasion tokens\", which were basically legal conterfeits. Because counterfeiting in Britain was only illegal for Regal Coinage, counterfeiters could legally produce facsimiles of other coinage as \"tokens\" which would then be used in place of actual currency.

Although Virgina had received Royal permission to mint coins in 1609, the colony had avoided doing so until 1773 when they again received express royal permission to do so. By 1773, however, attitudes towards British rule were worsening and revolution seemed likely. Because of the threat of war, colonists began hoarding any form of copper coinage they could find. When Colonial Williamsburg was restored 40 Virginia Half-pennies were recovered, revealing a continued use of the Virginia Half-Penny well into the post-Revolutionary era, despite the image of King George which appears on the face.

The reverse of the pin face only features the impressions of the images on the front, revealing how little metal was actually used when creating these pins. The pins were given to people who purchased \"Victory Loans\" during WWI, which would allow the government to replenish its coffers while offering a return once the war was over to those who purchased them. This system of loans also meant if you purchased a loan you would have a monetary stake in the US winning, increasing the loyalty people felt to the United States. Pins are 0.75 in. in diameter.

These two tags were standard issue to all members of the United States Military, following the British and French who introduced \"dog tags\" to their troops at the beginning of WWI.  Unlike their British and French counterparts, which were composed of fiber, the United States chose to make their identification tags out of aluminum, about the size of the silver dollar at the time. Two tags were issued to each soldier, with one tag to remain with the body after death and another to be taken for medical records and casualty processing. The tags are stamped identically, with the name of the enlisted (C.M. Hall), his rank (Leiutenant \"LT\"), his division (151 Field Artillery Division), as well as USA to indicate his country of origin.  In 1918, identification numbers were added to the tags; the absence of these numbers meant Lt. Hall was issued his tags prior to 1918. Both tags are on separate but connected chains (the second smaller chain was meant to make removal of one tag from a fallen soldier easier. This is in caontrast to the Germans, who preferred breakable tags, one half of which was used for casualty reporting). The chain is bronze in color and uses a spring loaded circular clasp.

Mss1996.62.A10\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThis item is an example of a Chatelaine, a piece of functional jewlelry that gained popularity starting in the 18th century. The word Chatelaine was originially used to describe the lady of the castle. These ladies would be dressed in clothing that did not have pockets. In order to carry around any items they may need around the castle the ladies wore metal hooks on their waist from which they suspended things like keys, scissors, and thimbles with small chains. Chatelaines could range from the mundane to the spectacular. Some were encrusted with jewels or filigree. Beginning in the 19th century, the Chatelaine became a popular fashion item due to easy mechanical manufacturing. Both men and women now wore them with an assortment of items from knives to perfume to eyeglasses hanging from them. For women of the time, their crinoline dresses would have helped disguise the bulk of the items, but the weight was considerable. This particular piece is estimated to date to around the 1850s, although no identifying marking could be located on it. The main piece of the Chatelaine is the clip, which is adorned here with a small bird on a tree building a nest. The clip then has five connection points for chains. The five chains on this piece are made with circular links alternated with thicker three banded links. At the end of three of the chains are small hooks, with one additional chain missing its hook. The last chain terminates with a springsteel keyring. The main body of the piece is brass with silver plating, and the whole piece is covered in a pot metal coating. It is thought that this piece may be of German origin; however, Chatelaines were quite popular in Britain during this time period as well, and without the presence of any manufacturing marks, the exact date and origin of this piece are hard to determine.

Mss. 39.1J47.A03\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eCigar Box is actually not the proper term for this item; technically it is considered a quarter box since it is made to hold 250 Cigars, 1/4th of the 1000 a \"Box\" of Cigars holds. This particular box was manufactured by the Old Virginia Cheroots Company, and is interesting because it includes a dropfront. The dropfront would allow the storeowner to display the cigars in the actual box. This however required that the lid be hinged, as this one is. One can even see the remnants of the ribbon used to hold the lid from falling when opened. Most owners eneded up nailing dropfront boxes to make them more useable, making boxes which retain their original dropfront slightly more rare. The lid of the box shows a pricing of 3 for 5 Cents, and is crossed by an official Tobacco stamp to prove the proper taxes and fees had been paid, The mascot for the company is an elderly black man, and his image takes center space on the lid. Attached to the lid is what appears to be a promotional notice that says six five cent packages of Sweet Caporal Cigarettes are included free. The dropfront of the box warns consumers to beware imitations lacking their trademark and the signature of P. Whitlock. The bottom of the box was burnt with the stamp Factory No 85, 3d Dist. N.V. 250. This box can be seen alongside many other tobacco related items kept in the manuscripts artifacts collection. An image is available at https://www.flickr.com/photos/scrc/5766124998/.

This naptha-fueled lighter was carried by soldiers on all sides during WWI. The lighter is composed of three main sections. First we have the flint wheel, which is connected to the lighter and includes a knurled knob at one end with which a steel spring could be raised higher if the flint began to wear down. The second major component is the body of the lighter, a cylinder which would have ended in a small keyring (which is no longer present). The last major component is the wick, which is made of a yellow fiber and is connected to a chain which ends in a tiny metal ball. To extinguish the flames on these lighters the keyring on the bottom would be pulled, pulling the wick into the naptha, but closing off the air supply with the tiny metal ball. The lighter is heavily rusted, but the flint wheel can still be spun, a rarity in lighters of this age. This lighter was likely the personal possession of Channing M. Hall.

Whistles were issued to men in the treches during WWI in order to serve as a means of communication. Officers would be briefed on a large coordinated attack, and then at the appropriate time would blow their whistles to alert everyone within earshot to charge over the trench. These whistles were one of the only reliable forms of organizing an attack in mass because of the ability to intercept radio and the need for telegraph lines to be laid to facilitate communication in that manner.

The term aide-mémoire was used to descirbe a small notepad or book which one carried in order to remember important dates, events, etc. The cases of the Memoires are composed of a silvery lustrous metal. On the front of the Memoire are three raised emblems. The central emblem is that of the U.S. Naval Academy. In the lower right hand corner is another naval symbol, with an eagle perched ona ships wheel with crossed sword behind. In the upper left hand corner is yet another naval symbol of an eagle perched on a ship's bell with crossed oars behind it. One of the most intriguing aspects of these pieces is the closing mechanism. A small metal pencil is attached to the right hand side of the memoire. While the pencil is inserted, the book stays closed, but when removed it is \"unlocked'. The Penicls are mechanical and will dispense more graphite if twisted clockwise. The top spine of the memoire features a loop which is attached to a blue and gold cord (extant on only one of the aide-mémoires). The front of the book proper contains a small page commemorating the farewell ball, which took place at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The second page features a small color picture of a girl dressed in a navy pea coat carrying a small holly tree. The following pages are filled with the different dances that were played that night, as well as the title of the song and the composer. The owner of one of the aide-mémoires wrote down multiple \"Xs\" beneath the titles of the song, it is unknown what this was indicating. Later, the owner also writes several names down beneath the dances, probably the names of her partners. After the dance pages is another picture of a pea coat clad girl, but this time she's looking out of an open porthole. The next page lists all of the members of the Farewell Ball Committee. The last page reveals that the owner of the aide-mémoire was Emily M. Hall, and also gives her address. Subsequent pages are blank. Of the two notepads, the aide-mémoire with the tassle and writing within was clearly handled more. It shows some patina as well as a general dulling of the metal.

Perched atop the ring is an eagle with outstretched wings. A small decorative point hangs from the bottom of the ring. Two of the pins are backed with red, white, and blue ribbon that matches the ceremonial bars present on many military uniforms. The NLWS was a volunteer organization based in the U.S. that became a valuable resource during WWI. The members of this group were sometimes part of the Motor Corps, which supplied drivers for things like ambulances and military supply trucks. With the ever growing transportation network of the NLWS the military became more efficient at moving troops and in the event of massive industrial accidents, the NLWS would provide the ambulances needed to save lives. Any woman wearing this pin, in or out of uniform, was considered to be acting on the behalf of the NLWS. This league was the only option for women looking for a way to contribute to the war effort. Furthermore, the League provided women with the education necessary to keep traditionally male dominated services like telegraph and elevator operation running when the men went to war. Pins were owned by Sallie Munford Talbot, a Richmond woman who made the silk flag which flew over the Virginia Capitol until it was seized by Union Troops.

The group contains several notable pieces including an example of an extremely rare origninal George Clinton cent. The face of the coin features George Clinton, Governor of New York at the time and a personal freind to Thomas Machin, owwner of the mint which produced the coins. Machin's Mills, the mint which produced the majority of these coins, also produced counterfeit British coins. At the time (roughly 1787-1788) the mint at Machin's Mills began producing \"mules\" copies of British coins with either very basic copies of the reverse; or another pattern in use at the time (usually Vermont, Connecticut, or New York reverses). To keep out the prying eyes of children workers at the mint are said to have worn frightening masks to scare them away. The counterfeiting operation must have been somewhat successful because Machin's Mill lasted longer than even the official Mint of New York.

The company to which the State of Connecticut had initially offered its minting rights to was to produce around 1.4 Million Connecticut coppers from the copper that had been delivered by the State legislature. When the company was investigated, it was found that nearly 3 million coins had been produced underweight and were thus illegal. In addition to these now devalued coins, multiple counterfeits were also in circulation, mainly due to the efforts of James Atlee, a man who was tied to minting in Connecticut, New York, and Vermont. Many of the colorfully identified coins in this group, including so called, \"Laughing Head\" \"African Head\" and \"Mutton Head\" varieties are counterfeits of the legal version of Connecticut Coppers. The group also contains many example of legal Connecticut coinage including the \"Hercules Head\" variety.

Unlike other states during the Confederation Period, Massachusettes developed a state mint rather than offering contracts to private organizations (which had resulted in counterfeiting in several other states). The design that was used for the face of the coins (that of an Indian with bow and arrows) was adopted from Militia buttons; the reverse of the coin features an eagle. The dies used for the 1787 and some 1788 coins were made by Joseph Callendar, a student of Paul Revere. Of particular interest in this group is a 1787 prototype of the cent. The reverse of the coin features the standard eagle, but the arrows appear in the left talon rather than the right, as it it featured in subsequent cents. Also included in this group is a 1788 Cent whose reverse has been retooled to be a tree, a reverse which can be found on the replicas of the 1776 halfpenny included with this group.

Like many of the other New England states, the state of New Jersey sold the rights to mint coppers to a company of private individuals. Just as in the case of New York, Connecticut, and Vermont; New Jersey's private mint soon found itself split by internal strife and a lack of income. In the case of New Jersey the minting company split, with one comapny resorting to counterfeiting currency to remain financially solvent; while the other soon cold their equipment to Machin's Mint and dissolved. Nearly all of the coins bare the same face and reverse. The face shows the head of a horse, a plow beneath it, the date to the right, and the words NOVA CASAREA (the latin from which New Jersey derived its name. The reverse of these coins feature a shield with 13 stripes surrounded by the familiar phrase E PLURIBUS UNUM. Two pieces of particular interest are F03, which is a normal New Jersey copper in about uncirculated condition. Another piece of interest is F21.

The 1739 8 Reales coin is a cast of a \"Pillar\" type coin, so named for the two pillars on the obverse, not a period orignial. Two slides are also included with the cast. Another coin in this collection is the 1861 8 Reales coin. This original coin was minted in Guatemala and bares a portrait of Ferdinand VII on the obverse with the words DEI GRATIA (By the Grace of God). The reverse shows the two Pillars of Hercules surrounding the Spanish Crown and Coat of Arms, as well as the words HISPANIA ET IND REX (Ruler of Spain and the Indies). The coin is in good condition. One of the oldest coins in this collection is a 4 Reales coin, which was minted in Mexico City and dates to the Rule of Charles I of Spain. Charles united the kingdoms of Castille and Aragon into the Spanish empire, which was built on the wealth of the New World. The obverse features the Pillars of Hercules surrounding the number 4, which reveals the coin's denomination. The reverse features the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Castille and Leon; but not the coat of unified Spain which also features the heraldic symbols of Aragon and Navarre. This is typical of coins minted during this period, as Charles' mother, Joanna, was the Queen regent. It is in worn condition. The final coin in this group is an 8 reales coin, which is most likely a forgery. This 8 Reales coin appears to date from the reign of Philip II, but the reverse of the coin may reveal a different origin. The reverse features a representation of the Arms of Castile and Leon, but unlike the actual coat of arms featured on real Spanish coinage of the period, the lion and castle featured on the arms are reversed. Rather than having the lion in the lower left and upper right corners, they are in the lower right and upper left. The coin is marked with a visible P, indicating an origin in Lima, Peru or Potosi, Brazil. This inconsistency is not found on any other coins of this period minted in Peru or Potosi during this period.

The reverse features an image of a ship bound for the word AMERICA, which is framed by the words THANKS TO THE FRIENDS OF LIBERTY AND TRADE. The second piece, the Pitt farthing, features the same design, only slightly smaller. These tokens were minted in celebration of the repeal of the British Stamp Act. William Pitt had been a strong opponent of the Act and went so far as to accompany Benjamin Franklin to London to speak against the act in Parliament. Upon returning home, Pitt was hailed as a friend of Commerce, as was the King responsible for suppressing the Act, George III.

One interesting specimen is a 1795 Washington grate Halfpenny, which was minted and used in Britain at the time. Grate halfpennies such as this one were minted as a part of a promotion for a fireplace grate manufacturing company. Another pair of interesting specimens are the North Wales Halfpennies. These halfpennies were minted in Birmingham as \"evasion tokens\", which were basically legal conterfeits. Because counterfeiting in Britain was only illegal for Regal Coinage, counterfeiters could legally produce facsimiles of other coinage as \"tokens\" which would then be used in place of actual currency.

Although Virgina had received Royal permission to mint coins in 1609, the colony had avoided doing so until 1773 when they again received express royal permission to do so. By 1773, however, attitudes towards British rule were worsening and revolution seemed likely. Because of the threat of war, colonists began hoarding any form of copper coinage they could find. When Colonial Williamsburg was restored 40 Virginia Half-pennies were recovered, revealing a continued use of the Virginia Half-Penny well into the post-Revolutionary era, despite the image of King George which appears on the face.

The general design of this proof was preserved on the Confederate cent, with changes to the inscriptions. The other proof in the collection is identical save its composition of brass.

Until 1773, however, colonists had used tobacco as well as other imported coins and notes to make purchases. In 1773, the Virginia assembly voted to mint currency, which was delivered to Richmond but was not released because the assembly lacked a royal charter explicitly allowing them to do so. The charter was delivered a year later on the eve of the revolution, and the coins were promptly released.

These two tags were standard issue to all members of the United States Military, following the British and French who introduced \"dog tags\" to their troops at the beginning of WWI.  Unlike their British and French counterparts, which were composed of fiber, the United States chose to make their identification tags out of aluminum, about the size of the silver dollar at the time. Two tags were issued to each soldier, with one tag to remain with the body after death and another to be taken for medical records and casualty processing. The tags are stamped identically, with the name of the enlisted (C.M. Hall), his rank (Leiutenant \"LT\"), his division (151 Field Artillery Division), as well as USA to indicate his country of origin.  In 1918, identification numbers were added to the tags; the absence of these numbers meant Lt. Hall was issued his tags prior to 1918. Both tags are on separate but connected chains (the second smaller chain was meant to make removal of one tag from a fallen soldier easier. This is in caontrast to the Germans, who preferred breakable tags, one half of which was used for casualty reporting). The chain is bronze in color and uses a spring loaded circular clasp.

Mss1996.62.A10","This item is an example of a Chatelaine, a piece of functional jewlelry that gained popularity starting in the 18th century. The word Chatelaine was originially used to describe the lady of the castle. These ladies would be dressed in clothing that did not have pockets. In order to carry around any items they may need around the castle the ladies wore metal hooks on their waist from which they suspended things like keys, scissors, and thimbles with small chains. Chatelaines could range from the mundane to the spectacular. Some were encrusted with jewels or filigree. Beginning in the 19th century, the Chatelaine became a popular fashion item due to easy mechanical manufacturing. Both men and women now wore them with an assortment of items from knives to perfume to eyeglasses hanging from them. For women of the time, their crinoline dresses would have helped disguise the bulk of the items, but the weight was considerable. This particular piece is estimated to date to around the 1850s, although no identifying marking could be located on it. The main piece of the Chatelaine is the clip, which is adorned here with a small bird on a tree building a nest. The clip then has five connection points for chains. The five chains on this piece are made with circular links alternated with thicker three banded links. At the end of three of the chains are small hooks, with one additional chain missing its hook. The last chain terminates with a springsteel keyring. The main body of the piece is brass with silver plating, and the whole piece is covered in a pot metal coating. It is thought that this piece may be of German origin; however, Chatelaines were quite popular in Britain during this time period as well, and without the presence of any manufacturing marks, the exact date and origin of this piece are hard to determine.

The lid of the box shows a pricing of 3 for 5 Cents, and is crossed by an official Tobacco stamp to prove the proper taxes and fees had been paid, The mascot for the company is an elderly black man, and his image takes center space on the lid. Attached to the lid is what appears to be a promotional notice that says six five cent packages of Sweet Caporal Cigarettes are included free. The dropfront of the box warns consumers to beware imitations lacking their trademark and the signature of P. Whitlock. The bottom of the box was burnt with the stamp Factory No 85, 3d Dist.

This particular leather includes a picture of the Rotunda and Lawn of the University of Virginia. The leather is orange and the image in silver with only minimal wear and tear. There is no indication on the front or back of the leather which Tobacco company produced it. It can be surmised that this leather was part of a series produced on colleges to entice students of those schools to buy a particular brand of tobacco. In addition to leather, flannel and silk were also used to target different demographics (Silk to women, leather to students, flannels would take on a fake Indian motif). This Tobacco leather can be found alongside other pieces of Tobacco memorabilia in the Manuscripts Artifacts Collection. Located in Dec Obj S2, SS1, Box 12. Mss 2010.088","Tobacco silks were typically included by tobacco companies to create a collectible item to further a person's reasons to buy a particular brand of cigarette. Silks become popular items to include, especially depicting baseball players or pleasant scenes. The silks increasingly targeted women in the 1920s, as they were rapidly becoming a large consumer base. Other materials like flannel and leather were also used as promotional tie ins. The workmanship on some of these freebies is astonishing. This particular piece is blue, white, and gold and was made to advertise the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute. The bottom of the silk says Egyptienne Luxury, which reveals the brand that produced this silk. Egyptienne Luxury brand cigarettes produced several runs of collectible silks featuring themes like colleges, states, and even secret societies. The other end of the silk reveals that it was produced in New York. This item, along with an example of a tobacco leather can be found in the Manuscripts Artifacts Collection.

Two of the pins are backed with red, white, and blue ribbon that matches the ceremonial bars present on many military uniforms. The NLWS was a volunteer organization based in the U.S. that became a valuable resource during WWI. The members of this group were sometimes part of the Motor Corps, which supplied drivers for things like ambulances and military supply trucks. With the ever growing transportation network of the NLWS the military became more efficient at moving troops and in the event of massive industrial accidents, the NLWS would provide the ambulances needed to save lives. Any woman wearing this pin, in or out of uniform, was considered to be acting on the behalf of the NLWS. This league was the only option for women looking for a way to contribute to the war effort. Furthermore, the League provided women with the education necessary to keep traditionally male dominated services like telegraph and elevator operation running when the men went to war.

The face of the coin features George Clinton, Governor of New York at the time and a personal freind to Thomas Machin, owwner of the mint which produced the coins. Machin's Mills, the mint which produced the majority of these coins, also produced counterfeit British coins. At the time (roughly 1787-1788) the mint at Machin's Mills began producing \"mules\" copies of British coins with either very basic copies of the reverse; or another pattern in use at the time (usually Vermont, Connecticut, or New York reverses). To keep out the prying eyes of children workers at the mint are said to have worn frightening masks to scare them away. The counterfeiting operation must have been somewhat successful because Machin's Mill lasted longer than even the official Mint of New York.

The company to which the State of Connecticut had initially offered its minting rights to was to produce around 1.4 Million Connecticut coppers from the copper that had been delivered by the State legislature. When the company was investigated, it was found that nearly 3 million coins had been produced underweight and were thus illegal. In addition to these now devalued coins, multiple counterfeits were also in circulation, mainly due to the efforts of James Atlee, a man who was tied to minting in Connecticut, New York, and Vermont. Many of the colorfully identified coins in this group, including so called, \"Laughing Head\" \"African Head\" and \"Mutton Head\" varieties are counterfeits of the legal version of Connecticut Coppers. The group also contains many example of legal Connecticut coinage including the \"Hercules Head\" variety.

Unlike other states during the Confederation Period, Massachusettes developed a state mint rather than offering contracts to private organizations (which had resulted in counterfeiting in several other states). The design that was used for the face of the coins (that of an Indian with bow and arrows) was adopted from Militia buttons; the reverse of the coin features an eagle. The dies used for the 1787 and some 1788 coins were made by Joseph Callendar, a student of Paul Revere. Of particular interest in this group is a 1787 prototype of the cent. The reverse of the coin features the standard eagle, but the arrows appear in the left talon rather than the right, as it it featured in subsequent cents. Also included in this group is a 1788 Cent whose reverse has been retooled to be a tree, a reverse which can be found on the replicas of the 1776 halfpenny included with this group.

Like many of the other New England states, the state of New Jersey sold the rights to mint coppers to a company of private individuals. Just as in the case of New York, Connecticut, and Vermont; New Jersey's private mint soon found itself split by internal strife and a lack of income. In the case of New Jersey the minting company split, with one comapny resorting to counterfeiting currency to remain financially solvent; while the other soon cold their equipment to Machin's Mint and dissolved. Nearly all of the coins bare the same face and reverse. The face shows the head of a horse, a plow beneath it, the date to the right, and the words NOVA CASAREA (the latin from which New Jersey derived its name. The reverse of these coins feature a shield with 13 stripes surrounded by the familiar phrase E PLURIBUS UNUM. Two pieces of particular interest are F03, which is a normal New Jersey copper in about uncirculated condition. Another piece of interest is F21.

The 1739 8 Reales coin is a cast of a \"Pillar\" type coin, so named for the two pillars on the obverse, not a period orignial. Two slides are also included with the cast. Another coin in this collection is the 1861 8 Reales coin. This original coin was minted in Guatemala and bares a portrait of Ferdinand VII on the obverse with the words DEI GRATIA (By the Grace of God). The reverse shows the two Pillars of Hercules surrounding the Spanish Crown and Coat of Arms, as well as the words HISPANIA ET IND REX (Ruler of Spain and the Indies). The coin is in good condition. One of the oldest coins in this collection is a 4 Reales coin, which was minted in Mexico City and dates to the Rule of Charles I of Spain. Charles united the kingdoms of Castille and Aragon into the Spanish empire, which was built on the wealth of the New World. The obverse features the Pillars of Hercules surrounding the number 4, which reveals the coin's denomination. The reverse features the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Castille and Leon; but not the coat of unified Spain which also features the heraldic symbols of Aragon and Navarre. This is typical of coins minted during this period, as Charles' mother, Joanna, was the Queen regent. It is in worn condition. The final coin in this group is an 8 reales coin, which is most likely a forgery. This 8 Reales coin appears to date from the reign of Philip II, but the reverse of the coin may reveal a different origin. The reverse features a representation of the Arms of Castile and Leon, but unlike the actual coat of arms featured on real Spanish coinage of the period, the lion and castle featured on the arms are reversed. Rather than having the lion in the lower left and upper right corners, they are in the lower right and upper left. The coin is marked with a visible P, indicating an origin in Lima, Peru or Potosi, Brazil. This inconsistency is not found on any other coins of this period minted in Peru or Potosi during this period.

The reverse features an image of a ship bound for the word AMERICA, which is framed by the words THANKS TO THE FRIENDS OF LIBERTY AND TRADE. The second piece, the Pitt farthing, features the same design, only slightly smaller. These tokens were minted in celebration of the repeal of the British Stamp Act. William Pitt had been a strong opponent of the Act and went so far as to accompany Benjamin Franklin to London to speak against the act in Parliament. Upon returning home, Pitt was hailed as a friend of Commerce, as was the King responsible for suppressing the Act, George III.

One interesting specimen is a 1795 Washington grate Halfpenny, which was minted and used in Britain at the time. Grate halfpennies such as this one were minted as a part of a promotion for a fireplace grate manufacturing company. Another pair of interesting specimens are the North Wales Halfpennies. These halfpennies were minted in Birmingham as \"evasion tokens\", which were basically legal conterfeits. Because counterfeiting in Britain was only illegal for Regal Coinage, counterfeiters could legally produce facsimiles of other coinage as \"tokens\" which would then be used in place of actual currency.

Although Virgina had received Royal permission to mint coins in 1609, the colony had avoided doing so until 1773 when they again received express royal permission to do so. By 1773, however, attitudes towards British rule were worsening and revolution seemed likely. Because of the threat of war, colonists began hoarding any form of copper coinage they could find. When Colonial Williamsburg was restored 40 Virginia Half-pennies were recovered, revealing a continued use of the Virginia Half-Penny well into the post-Revolutionary era, despite the image of King George which appears on the face.

These two tags were standard issue to all members of the United States Military, following the British and French who introduced \"dog tags\" to their troops at the beginning of WWI.  Unlike their British and French counterparts, which were composed of fiber, the United States chose to make their identification tags out of aluminum, about the size of the silver dollar at the time. Two tags were issued to each soldier, with one tag to remain with the body after death and another to be taken for medical records and casualty processing. The tags are stamped identically, with the name of the enlisted (C.M. Hall), his rank (Leiutenant \"LT\"), his division (151 Field Artillery Division), as well as USA to indicate his country of origin.  In 1918, identification numbers were added to the tags; the absence of these numbers meant Lt. Hall was issued his tags prior to 1918. Both tags are on separate but connected chains (the second smaller chain was meant to make removal of one tag from a fallen soldier easier. This is in caontrast to the Germans, who preferred breakable tags, one half of which was used for casualty reporting). The chain is bronze in color and uses a spring loaded circular clasp.

This classification includes equipment used in all forms of athletic games, including individual and team sports. Sports and their specialized equipment have proliferated over the years. Object groupings in this classification focus on th most popular sports while not attempting to be encyclopedic. Object terms seek to cover the forms that are the most familiar and most likely to be part of museum collections. If a specific term is not listed, consider using the broader \"Gear\" term. terms covering practice, warm-up, and exercise equipment can be found in Recreational Devices. Note: The word \"Gear,\" employed in many of the primary object terms below, suggests a plural connotation even though Nomenclature object terms are in the sigular. The use of \"Gear\" as an object term (rather than as a sub-classification) provides the cataloger with terms that allow the indexing of an unlisted object or an object whose term is listed elsewhere with its associated sport.","Artifacts originally created as playthings. Toys often represent functional objects, such as toy teapots, or toy ships, or living things, such as baby dolls or stuffed animals. Toys also include objects developed primarily for play, such as balls, tops, or kites.

The back of the doll reveals a tiny puncture which may have been a result of the molding process. Without any distinguishing or identifying markings the doll's origins are difficult to determine.

No additional information could be found related to Dr. Von Frieling's life or medical practice. Documentation written by Edward Colman and George Von Frieling that accompanies the book describes its discovery in approximately 1902 on the Von Frieling estate in Soltau, Germany. Colman and G. Von Frieling write that the book, which included an ancient recipe for green butter salve, was found inside an iron box with several decaying, unreadable papers. Their record dates the book to 1512, but this date lacks additional authentication and should be considered unconfirmed.\n","\nMuch of the Von Frieling's Salve Collection pertains to the recipe for green butter salve, which supposedly was created by Dr. Albert Von Frieling in the 16th century. After the discovery of the untitled work on the estate in Soltau, Henry Von Frieling, a descendant of Dr. Albert Von Frieling, is said to have recreated the salve described by his ancestor. Heinrich (Henry) Von Frieling was born 21 September 1885 in Soltau, according to the inscription in the front of his notebook. He came to New York in the early 20th century, but little is know about his life, other than his business venture to market \"Von Frieling's Salve.\" H. Von Frieling applied for a patent for the salve in 1911, and historical newspapers show that advertisements for Von Frieling's Salve continued to run in several Iowa papers until at least 1931. An undated and unidentified newspaper clipping reports the filing of a bankruptcy petition for \"Frieling Bros. (Henry's Restaurant),\" owned by \"Henry V. and George V. Frieling\" in the southern district, which possibly refers to the Southern District of New York.\n","\nThis collection consists of 17 folders. In addition to the untitled book, designated the \"Von Frieling Sammelband,\" the collection contains photocopies of the book and materials related to the 20th century version of Von Frieling's green butter salve, also called Von Frieling's plaster salve. These materials include documentation and packaging for the salve, patent paperwork, correspondence, and various items related to herbal medicine and early German printing, as well as two samples of the salve itself.\n","\nThe Von Frieling Sammelband is believed to have been owned by the Von Frieling family of Soltau, Germany. The book is a composite work in German with pages taken from at least three apparently separate works and sewn together into one bound volume. These texts include a work on the interpretation of dreams, another on the medicinal properties of various local waters, and other writings related to astrology and early medicine. In a description of the 20th century rediscovery of the Von Frieling Sammelband, the authors note that \"this book contains quotations from philosophers of that period, notes upon the art of steel making and a formula for making a green butter salve that made Doctor Von Frieling famous as a man of healing power.\" The book is bound in leather; the text is printed in Gothic-style German and includes small woodblock prints. Following the sections of printed text, the book includes an extensive section of handwritten notes, also in German, which appear to have been added by different hands and at various times up to the 1800s. Among the notes are several hand-drawn designs and sketches.\n","Book is in poor condition; binding is very fragile and pages show substantial weather damage.","The notebook contains undated writings in German possibly written by Heinrich Von Frieling, and a short \"History of the Henry Von Frieling Plaster Salve\" written in English by Edward Colman and George Von Frieling and dated March 1912. The notebook also includes a newspaper clipping of bankruptcy proceedings in the southern district (perhaps referring to New York) which lists the entity \"Frieling Bros. (Henry's Restaurant)\" owned by Henry V. and George V. Frieling as filing a petition for bankruptcy.","Instructions advise that the salve should be used \"for cuts, boils, carbuncles, abscess and infection… for blood poisoning from shot wounds, snake, insect or animal bites and… for burns and scalds from water, grease, or acid.\"","Includes \"History\" and \"Directions\" for the salve, written in English and German.","Petition to the US Patent Office regarding Henry Von Frieling's salve.","Includes letters to Henry Von Frieling from E.A. Schmalz, Leo Kaulfuss, Thoralf Rosfjord, H. Koetter, Henry Isernhagen, and Ivan Clearwaters. Correspondence consists of testimonials and purchase requests for the Von Frieling salve. In English and German.","Photocopied contents of the Von Frieling Sammelband","Writing sample of two different types of German script","\nCover description: \"100 heilpflanzen in naturgetreuer, farbiger Darstellung, ausgewählt, von Kräuterpfarrer Johann Künzle\" (100 medicinal plants in lifelike, colored representation selected by \"herbs priest\" Johann Künzle)\n","\nThe atlas includes illustrations and written descriptions of 100 medicinal herbs, in German.
