Description

This gorgeous brass sign depicts the conversion of fractions to decimal places for the use of commodity metal pricing. For instance, 1/64 = .015625. The decimal conversion are carried out to 6 decimal places.

Top of the sign reads, "Brass - Bronze - Copper / For Immediate Stock Delivery"

The bottom of the sign reads, " Conklin Brass & Copper CO., Inc. / 54-60 Lafayette St., New York - Telephone Walker 5-7500

Based upon the 5 digit phone number, we believe this sign is from the 1950s. The Conklin Brass & Copper Co was founded in 1860 and manufactured brass, bronze, and copper products. They were located in Duane St until they moved to the Lafayette St address in 1922. They later moved from this address in 1961.
