Merlin shared the unusual find with me today. There is picture of another one at the CJ-3B Page.
“This is a Bantam BRC Syrocowood paperweight. As far as we know these were given out by Bantam to officers testing the Bantam Jeeps. I found this one sitting in a local antique shop!”
=======================
After seeing this post, Josh forwarded me a picture of his syrocowood Bantam paperweight that includes an image of his tank syrocowood too. He wrote, “I’ve been collecting those bantam paperweights for years. They are syrocowood and should have a little sticker gold and black on the bottom that says ‘Made in the USA SYROCOWOOD SYRACUSE NY’. Here’s one of a pen holder I have, also I a few tanks; one of the tanks a pipe holder.”
