Description: You are bidding on a Vintage Duryeas Satin Gloss Starch Wooden Advertising Box or Crate...The box measures approx 6" high and 6 1/2" wide and 10" in long..The box is in very good condition and displays great for its age...I took pictures of all sides including top and bottom to show the condition of the box..This is a nice addition to a collection.... During the 1850s, Duryeas’ Corn Starch Manufacturing Company relocated their central plant from Oswego, New York, to the south side of Glen Cove Creek. At the close of the Civil War, the plant was the world’s largest producer of starch. At its apogee, the factory covered some 30 acres and employed over 700 workers. The massive plant housed chemical buildings, blacksmith shops, corn elevators, a cooperage, box factory, lumberyard, print shop, etc. A company town formed around the factory, with living quarters for employees and a company store. The plant stayed in business until 1900 and burned down in 1906.. I buy estates and list the items the way I view them and may miss something that is important to you,so please ask BEFORE BIDDING...
