The "Other" Centennial

On Independence Day, this one seemed like the right choice for a story.  This is the Eagle Number 257, made to celebrate the anniversary of the founding of the United States, but not the Centennial nor the Bicentennial.  This one commemorates the "Sesquicentennial," or 150th anniversary, in 1926 . . .

NOTE:  This article is now included in the print version of The Leadhead's Pencil Blog, available anywhere you buy books, or also from The Legendary Lead Company.
