They were sold as a kit by mail order, sear's and a couple other's.
You filled out the order and put which numbers and letters you needed and
you could assmble it yoourself.
We have a few of those in henry county.

Im not sure where you are - but there are a lot of them in the south
bend Indiana - city cemetery near Linden and walnut - they are in great
shape. Ive seen them else where but there seems to be proportionally
more here.

Does anybody have any information on the cemetery stones that are maybe
copper or bronze? They have the bluish green patina. I have
researched hour
after hour and have come up with nothing. History? Suppliers?
