STILL MORE ON ENGRAVER PHILIP RANDALL

Dave Bowers writes:

There were two RANDALL engravers in the Boston area, etc., etc. “Our” Randall was NOT the one who did the token illustrated.

Definitely confusing, but makes sense – the token was very different in style. -Editor

Regarding the topic, “MORE ON ENGRAVER PHILIP RANDALL,” the June 18, 1868 patent (number 78923) was issued to Henry H. Browne of Mount Vernon, New York. Titled “Improvement in Advertising Devices.” It describes “a new and useful Improvement in Pocket-Mirror Business Cards.” This patent date is found on numerous embossed shell cards.
