Post Toasties Fob

[gitterdug]

Here is a cool find I made about a month ago. It is a Post Toasties Watch Fob, circa 1908. One of the things I found most interesting was at the bottom of the fob, it is Postum Cereal Company. A bit of research revealed that the original name of the cereal was "Heaven's Manna", but some religious groups of the time nixed that name...... I love the fob though........just wanted to share a recent cool find.

That is a sweet find... I enjoy digging up those fobs... Watched a special on the History Channel just the other day on Post and the show advised the same thing about the name change...

I enjoy the historical aspect of things, and fobs usually have some story associated with them.

Very nice find!
