Old school match box holders hanging in my dad’s mechanic shop. Every lumber yard, cabin and camp had them. But you can’t find them anymore. So we started looking years ago and finally found the OG maker.
Fulton Corp. has been in operation since 1906 making match strikes out of the same factory in the little town of Fulton, Illinois. They make old school supplies for hardware stores, lumber yards & farm stores.
The Fulton Journal, December 8, 1916:
“A splendid industry founded in 1905, and among the articles of utility that was first invented and made was a handle dustpan”
Ours is pressed black metal, imprint :
