Description: This vintage cast iron turtle match holder dispenser was most likely distributed as a giveaway or sold as collectible from Barstow Ranges as it commemorates the 90th anniversary (1836-1926) and a key milestone of the Barstow Stove Company. Items such as this were designed to reinforce brand loyalty and celebrate the company’s achievements. The Barstow Stove Company, founded in 1836 in Providence, Rhode Island, was one of the earliest American stove manufacturers. By 1926, the company had transitioned primarily to assembling gas stoves, having stopped its foundry operations a year earlier in 1925–1926. This match holder may have been among the last cast iron products produced or commissioned by the company. Ideal for display or use, this match holder dispenser is a must-have for anyone who appreciates unique and antique collectibles of a historically significant company, and it would appeal to collectors of cast iron novelties, industrial artifacts, and stove and range advertising memorabilia. Please see all photos as they are a part of the description. There is some noticeable rust and expected wear for its age. Weight: 14oz. / L: 4.5 in / W: 3.5 / H: 1.75 in Enameled.
