Item Description
2-1/8" by W&H w/100% silvering and mirror perimeter has circle of celluloid held by the collet with ad text in red "Consign Your Stock To Brinkman, Wood & Beck/Prompt And Reliable". We think this is the first mirror we've seen with this innovation, which did not catch on, possibly because the extra work involved wasn't financially viable. Front cello in outstanding color and picturing the same massive steer as on previous mirror, although color tone is very different and this was for four day event in Pittsburgh at "Central Stock Yards". Rim has two pale gray marks at 2 and 6 o'clock with rest clean and glossy. VF. Rare. Alan Weinberg Collection.
