P2 pin rarity?
I have a P2 Reulbach with paper on the back that says WHITEHEAD AND HOAG CO. Is this a rarity? All the other ones I have are either Factory 25 or Factory 42. Thanks.

No. Somebody changed the paper. It should be Sweet Caporal I believe.

Leon, That is what I thought as all my others are Sweet Caporal either Factory 25 or 42. This one says:
"The Whitehead&Hoag Co. Newark, N.J. Then the Union stamp "Allied PrintingTrades Union Council " 3 outside the label Label "Newark, N.J." "patented July 17 1894 April 14, 1896 July 21, 1896" Given the Sweet Caporal are 1910-12, I was wondering if maybe this was a promotion of some sort by Whitehead & Hoag. Guess I will have to do some more research on this company. Thanks. Jim |

I have attached scans but the back is very fuzzy and can't seem to get it any better. I have also just done some research on Whitehead and Hoag and found, among other things, they made political buttons for the 1910 campaign. I wonder if they took a Sweet Caporal pin, added their logo on the back, just to show people they could do it???

I took a picture of the back and it came out better.
