Description
Antique Cast Iron HL Judd #1259 Doorstop Flower Basket with Original Paint. Measures 8 3/8" tall and 6” wide. It is marked on the back 1259 which is absolutely correct for genuine Judd. The exact same doorstop was featured on page 200 of a 1926 Judd catalog. This doorstop has the old original paint. Excellent condition with no damage. The same doorstop is listed on page 66 of The Doorstop Encyclopedia by Smith. Guaranteed genuine original as described with original paint. This is not a Hubbly as advertised by other dealers. It is a Judd. A little history: Deacon and blacksmith Morton Judd (1808-1901) of New Britain opened a small machine shop and forge with his brother Oliver S. Judd around 1830 to make harness hames. After selling a portion of the business to Henry North (later the North and Judd Mfg. Co.), the firm began to make drapery, window and picture hardware. In 1862 Morton and sons Albert, Edward and Hubert, moved operations to New Haven, reorganizing as the Judd Manufacturing Company. Around 1875, Judd Manufacturing moved to the plant’s present location in Wallingford. At about the same time, the firm opened a branch in Brooklyn where upholsterer's hardware was made. The Brooklyn branch was incorporated in 1884 as H. L. Judd and Company (with Hubert at the helm), and bought out Judd Manufacturing. In 1880, the company opened a wood turning mill to produce curtain poles in Chattanooga, Tennessee; in 1928, a factory for 'artistic wrought iron drapery hardware and art metal goods' was established in Los Angeles, California. In 1954, the Stanley Works of New Britain, Connecticut, purchased H.L. Judd and Company and absorbed its manufacturing operations and approximately 600 workers; it was renamed the Stanley-Judd Company. Stanley-Judd Company drapery products remained strong through the 1970s but operations were shut down shortly thereafter. In 1989, the factory was redeveloped as the Judd Square Condominiums.Shipping:Domestic: Flat-rate of $30.00 to anywhere within the contiguous U.S.International: Foreign shipping rates are determined by destination.
