Aus die Sammlung von Mike Finn


The Wilton family has been involved in the metal casting industry since 1892 at the Susquehanna Casting Company near Wrightsville, Pennsylvania USA. At that time, the foundry produced industrial iron castings for other manufacturers. Half a century later, Ralph P. Wilton, Jr. expanded the family business through other ventures, such as Wilton Products (1940) which made cast iron gifts and the Wilton Brass Company (1955). The company's greatest success occurred in 1963 when Wilton, Jr. developed the formula for a unique aluminum-based alloy called Armetale, which led to a new line of Wilton products. In 1969, the Wilton Brass Company relocated to Mount Joy, Pennsylvania and changed its name to reflect its new direction. After 118 years Wilton Armetale was split up and sold. They made all types of products.

I liked this Military Police stein because of the handle and part of their logo is crossed Harper’s Ferry pistols. The Harpers Ferry Armory in Virginia (now West Virginia) in 1805 made the first pistol manufactured by an American national armory. This mug is about 4-3/4" tall and made 1963-2010. And I was an M.P.
