Item Details

Description

An interline brass baggage tag used for travel between Madison, Wisconsin and Golden City, Colorado. The lines used were the Milwaukee Road, Rock Isand and the Colorado Central. Interesting to see Golden City rather than just Golden. Made by William Wilcox in Chicago and has serial number 777, This is the strap check so it is double sided with reverse routing. I don't ever remember seeing this much smooth wear to a double sided tag before. There is a bend but no abuse. Pretty dark patina.
