Siegel-Presse | Sealpress Patented 1852 This large cast iron seal press has a human face on the left end above the die, which reads: Weyer & McKee, Madison, Ind., Wholesale Grocers, Iron & Commission Merchants. According to historical documents, Josiah S. Weyer and R. S. McKee did business in Madison as Weyer & McKee at least from 1848 through 1860. In 1861, President Lincoln gave preliminary approval for Weyer to serve as U.S. consul to Jerusalem, but Weyer was not appointed. |
