Found along north side of Granite Lane near Kenneth Sanders house. Plate face exhibits plum colored patina with verdigris, left edge chipped in near “U” letter. Slight chipping along upper edge. Otherwise symmetrical. Reverse side retain its lead backing, with verdigris, plus its “puppy paws” and hook, with small leather belt remnant attached to the “paws.” With reverse paws & hooks, and leather remnant…a superb Gettysburg collectible.

This relic is part of the Iva Rosensteel-Rider collection. Mrs. Rider was the sister of Georg Rosensteel, who started the Electric Map museum in Gettysburg. Eventually, it became a part of the Rider collection in Gettysburg, which remained in the family until The Horse Soldier purchased the collection in June 2016.  [jp]
