This vintage paperweight is a promotional item from Lyman-Richey Sand & Gravel Corporation in Omaha, Nebraska during the 1940s. It is a very rare find for collectors of small unique items or items from Omaha. The paperweight is made of leather and filled with washed and screened sand and gravel, giving it a unique weight and texture. The paperweight is in excellent condition!!
Measuring 3 1/2 inches by 2 inches, this black paperweight with gold lettering is a one-of-a-kind item that would make a great addition to any collection. It weights 10.5 ounces.
The paperweight has the address of Jackson and a phone number of 1468 on it. When researching this item, I found that LYMAN~RICHEY moved from that Jackson location in 1940! So it is at least that old!!! Don't miss your chance to own this piece of Omaha business history!
Please look at the photos for the condition of the paperweight. If you have any questions please contact the seller. Thanks for looking!!!!
