3 Antique Time Check & Noon Brass Tags: MARION STEAM SHOVEL Co; Matched (Tool Checks)
This is a set of 3 identically numbered and very nice 1-1/16" antique brass tags from the MARION STEAM SHOVEL COMPANY. The backs are blank.
The Marion Steam Shovel Company, founded in 1884 in Marion OH, company built steam shovels. Business boomed during the late nineteenth century with the advent of railroad construction. With the United States’ acquisition of the Panama Canal Zone in 1903, the federal government turned to Marion to provide the steam shovels necessary for the canal’s construction. Marion became known as the “city that built the Panama Canal,” thanks to the Marion Steam Shovel Company.
By the 1920s, steam power became less popular, and the Marion Steam Shovel Company changed its name to the Marion Power Shovel Company.  Marion's shovels were used primarily for road building and strip mining and were instrumental in building the Hoover Dam and the Holland Tunnel.
Great value for three...
Our policy is Customer Satisfaction. Please ask questions when needed. Combined shipping discounts almost always apply! If a problem develops, contact us to assess what can be done; this is more reasonable than "opening a case" without communication. Returns honored in appropriate situations. Refund generally to be made to buyer for high bid amount only. We do not pay for shipping on returns for reasons such as not paying attention to descriptions or making up a bogus reason and never on international shipments. We ship quickly & economically and can validate that an item has been shipped and received via domestic tracking. We have no control of the USPS so please be patient. On international shipments, can validate that the item was received by the postal service, but will not be responsible for an item lost in your country's local customs office or for customs fees. Local pick-up is always an option. Primary focus is value & service. Will not hesitate to block those who do not employ professional protocol. Lastly, please don't make ridiculous offers on fixed price listings.
