Hello all
I went down to an annual flea market this afternoon, and ended up buying this die holder, as well as some other items. I have seen the name "Butterfield" on quite a few items over the years, but didn't realize that the original factory sprawled it's 200,00 square feet on both sides of the border of Vermont and Quebec in the late 1800's.
This is an early looking piece, as it has just a "Q" after Rock Island, instead of "PQ".
I thought that this might be interesting to some of you.
