He lost of course, but still carried Wisconsin and 17% of the national popular vote. Not too bad.

Also found 2 CW roundballs, a good luck shoe token, and some brass odds and ends. But by the time I finished slogging through the mud, I was just too tired to come to Triune.

Roscoe Turner's Flying Corp" around the number "57". I looked up the good "Colonel", and it seems he thrived on a variety of risky jobs. He was a WWI balloon observer, later a lion tamer, a stunt pilot wing walker, a parachute jumper, and an airplane racer during the 1920s and 1930s.
The pin dates from 1934, when the Heinz 57 Food Co. sponsored him to fly their "57" airplane in races. Heinz also had a flying club for kids to join, and this tiny pin was worn by members. When I say "tiny", I really mean it: the pin measures only 1 1/4 inches long and 1/4 inch wide.]]> Billsie Middle Tennessee Metal Detecting ClubThu, 06 Jun 2013 23:24:07 -0400 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,588333,588333#msg-588333 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,588333,588333#msg-588333 minnixb Middle Tennessee Metal Detecting ClubMon, 10 Jun 2013 09:21:35 -0400 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,588124,588124#msg-588124 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,588124,588124#msg-588124

First I want to thank Lee Phillips and Shane the property owner for allowing us to come and hunt as a group again. Lots of iron dug as usual but some excellent finds were made and if you don't recognize the digger I will post more comments later, See photos and enjoy!]]> T Guin Middle Tennessee Metal Detecting ClubSun, 14 Apr 2013 10:33:37 -0400 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,584060,584060#msg-584060 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,584060,584060#msg-584060 AARON TN Middle Tennessee Metal Detecting ClubSun, 14 Apr 2013 21:51:43 -0400 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,583720,583720#msg-583720 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,583720,583720#msg-583720
Both buttons have the same backmark: "M.C. Lilley & Co., Columbus O."

Apparently this company changed its name as follows:

M.C. Lilley & Co. 1865-1882

The M.C. Lilley & Co. 1882-1925

The Lilley & Co. 1925-1931 -- and other names after that.

So, this suggests the buttons were certainly made in the time interval 1865-1925, and probably 1865-1882.

Any information from you Masons or others out there would be most appreciated.:smile:]]> Billsie Middle Tennessee Metal Detecting ClubThu, 11 Apr 2013 17:50:58 -0400 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,583574,583574#msg-583574 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,583574,583574#msg-583574 Mike Fuson Middle Tennessee Metal Detecting ClubWed, 17 Apr 2013 17:42:06 -0400 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,582469,582469#msg-582469 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,582469,582469#msg-582469 minnixb Middle Tennessee Metal Detecting ClubWed, 03 Apr 2013 12:18:43 -0400 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,582022,582022#msg-582022 http://www.mytreasurespot.com/main/read.php?26,582022,582022#msg-582022
