Williamson Williamson "Flash" Souvenir Corkscrews A catalog from the readers of The Weekly Screw Updated July 11, 2006 Don Bull, Editor, [email protected] This project began on May 23, 2006 with an announcement published in The Weekly Screw. This is the "Flash list". For the "Picture Catalog", please see http://www.bullworks.net/daily/flashpix.pdf In a 1929 catalog the C.T. Williamson Manufacturing Company, Newark, New Jersey, offered the "Flash" Corkscrew and Bottle Opener. This style corkscrew / opener can be found with many different paper souvenir labels from locations across North America. From the number reported so far, it seems the Williamson Company had a darn good representative selling the product. The "Flash" corkscrews are found with metal caps on the bottom and without the cap. It is possible that those with caps are pre WWII and those without are after WWII. The "Flash" corkscrews can be found with site related specific scenes (e.g. Empire State Building) and with generic scenes with place name overprint (Indian, Deer in Water, Sailboat, Beach Scene, etc.). Although we have not yet found any advertising brochures offering the "Flash" for sale for dating purposes, we do know that one depicts the "Chicago's New Zoo at Brookfield, Ill." which opened in 1934. Another is from Santa's Work Shop North Pole, Whiteface Mountain, New York which opened in 1949. Photos can be found on the Internet at http://www.bullworks.net/daily/flashpix.pdf, Readers are encouraged to submit additions, photos and literature, advertisements, brochures to: Don Bull, Editor / email [email protected] Williamson "Flash" Corkscrews Description Owner Photo?

Ticonderoga was the America’s first Revolutionary the lake which came to bear his southernmost outpost of the War victory: Fort Ticonderoga. A little over an hour’s drive from Lake Placid, Ticonderoga is situated — town, village and fort — in the far southeastern corner of Essex County, just a short stone’s throw across Lake Cham- plain from the Green Mountains of Vermont. Fort Ticonderoga is an abso- lute North Country “must see” — but to appreciate this historical gem, one must know its history. Two centuries of battle It was the two-mile “carry” up the La Chute River from Lake Champlain through Ticonderoga village to Lake George that gave the site its name, a Mohican word that means “land between the wa- ters.” Overlooking the water highway connecting the two lakes as well as the St. Lawrence and Hudson rivers, Ticonderoga’s strategic importance made it the frontier for centuries between competing cultures: first between the northern Abenaki and south- ern Mohawk natives, then be- tween French and English colo- nizers, and finally between royal- ists and patriots in the American Revolution.
