Remington Cutlery Thermometer

The Remington Corporation and the knives that they built have influenced the U.S. cutlery industry more than nearly any other manufacturer. From the time America was settled, to the end of WWI, American knife companies struggled to compete with Britain and German imports, but events that occurred during and after the First World War led to a great change in this phenomenon. Unprecedented opportunities arose, and Remington stepped up to seize the moment. In the process, they created some of today's most prized collectables. In an ironic twist, the next World War played the greatest role in ending the company’s domination of the industry.

Remington Cutlery Thermometer

Post by remington collector »

Here's a fairly rare piece of Remington advertising. It's 38 " tall and 8" wide. It was probably made in the 1934- 1937 range. I've got one other original and one reproduction.
