Up for sale is a genuine, antique Bull Durham Tobacco promotional watch fob/pendant charm, dating back to the early 1900s. This iconic piece of American tobacciana features the classic embossed standing bull design with "BULL DURHAM" prominently displayed on the front side.
What makes this particular piece highly collectible is the exceptional legibility of the maker's stamps on the back:
Circular Stamp: Clearly reads "WARRANTED 14K GOLD PLATED".
Base Stamp: Stamped "SCHWAAB MILWAUKEE", identifying it as an authentic production from the prestigious Schwaab Stamp & Seal Co.
Condition: Beautiful vintage condition with a rich, dark bronze patina built up over a century of age. The original gold plating has mostly worn away, which is typical for these field-found or well-loved premiums, but the structural details and metal stamps remain remarkably crisp and sharp. The attachment loop is completely intact and ready for display or wear.
Please see the high-resolution photos for exact condition details. Perfect addition to any antique advertising, watch fob, or tobacciana collection!
