THE PAQUET CO. LTD,

157 RUE ST JOSEPH .

QUEBEC. CANADA.

This stencil is in good condition for its age. Edges are worn from use and storage. I have highlighted a few areas in pictures with the red arrow where the lettering has been damaged. First is the D in \"LTD\" which has lost its middle divider. Second is the space between \"157\" and \"RUE\" where the stencil maker went to punch an R but it did not go all the way through the oil board. And third is the N in \"CANADA\" has a small rip (which I believe is a from a damaged punch because I\'ve seen other stencils with the same rip in only the N\'s) Front is very heavily inked and there are not many signs of brush strokes- but in the right lighting you can see the layering of the ink which I tried to capture in a photo. There is a date on the back, which is hard to see except in certain lighting, which read 6/30/30.

If you any questions please reach out. Thank you!

*$2 bill in not included in the sale.

Summary:I acquired these 2 large and long storage boxes from an sale house in Pennsylvania about a year ago. The seller said it was from a cast iron toy manufacturer, and I have confirmed that these stencils came from The Dent Hardware Co. in Fullerton, PA.
I have sold many stencils and have many many more. A lot of F.W. Woolworth Co. and other small town five and dime stores. If you are looking for a particular city/ town please reach out as I may have it. I have organized the stencils into a spreadsheet and mapped most of the stencils we have. Please check out the map at the above link.
Use to create multiple of your own local collectibles, or would look great framed, in a collection. Some of our buyers use them for woodworking projects or unique gifts. A few examples are shown in the photos.
I can also make \"lots\" at a discounted price if purchasing multiple stencils. Thanks for looking!
