Such a wonderful find on one of my antique jaunts and truly a treasure....here is the story behind these beautiful papers: "Dent Hardware Company in Fullerton, Pennsylvania was in business from 1895 to 1973. They started making cast iron toys in 1898. Known for fine castings in its vehicles, one of the first manufacturers to try with little success aluminum toys in the 1920's. Toys were phased out during the hard time of the depression. Shipping slips and orders date from 1918 to 1931.
