Trip to Potter USA
Trip to Potter USA
The trip was an exciting experience.
DIe stampings and die hubs galore.
On May 20th six members of SSLC went to the Potter USA factory where a history of Jewelry manufacturing is housed.
Literally millions of original die hubs.
Stored throughout the facility.
Stored in drawers and shelves.
Also, in every room, nook, and cranny!
Antique Flywheel press
From the mid 1800's and restored by Victor Potter. Kevin's son.
Silver sheets too
Converted from pure silver grains to sheets and many gauges.
Impression die made from an original hub
Almost all these dies are from mid 1800's to around 1940.
