Robert, You may want to take a look at this one on ebay, and at $0.99 it's a steal, and $2.00 for shipping too. I didn't really examine it, so I don't remember if it's bad or not.
Great finds, and I really love the Longines opener.
I believe, that because of the the word, "Holy Fe" (for Ferars, or something like that) on the left of the opener, it's made by the same man that made one of my pocket watch cases, and I have since found that he was a very famous Artist that is VERY Collectable. All of that information was on my other computer that crashed, so if I can find some of the information again, I will post it for you.
He was famous for his artistry on watch cases, sculptures, and especially his ladies.
I posted my case on here a long time ago, and have no idea if it's still on here.
Again, Great Find!

Here is a nice Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen fob from Cleveland in 1915. This appears to be all original, a lot of fobs you see are portions of original delegates Badges from conventions.

I'm good Pete! Thanks for asking! The city, as all knows, is nowhere back to normalcy as evidenced, if any watched the Saints/Atlanta game last night. GO SAINTS! BLESS YOU BOYS!
Back to your fob. Okay, I had to do a little research to see how old your great fob is. Coca Cola is celebrating 120 years so that would make your fob 70 years old or born in 1936. Cool! Cool fob!
