Buster BeckDo you mean Illinois ? I have no data on the A. Hirsch Co of Chicago except to say they were a retailer around 1889.

Nathan MooreTony is correct. The "Washington," "Lincoln," and "Roosevelt" were private label movements manufactured by Hamilton for A. Hirsch Co.
To my knowledge, the total production of these private labels is unknown. However, they are not seen very often.
