![Stroehle Small Stick pic2.JPG - STROEHLE SEMI-FANCY SMALL - Semi-fancy small stick, 4 in. long with full-size thimble, made byIdaho Springs, CO blacksmith in 1890s, purchased by Leo Stambaugh and later sold to Steve Rush [information from Leo Stambaugh “I remember the stick; it was from the Stroehle family. Fred Stroehle was in a mine machinery company with his family from Central City and he opened a shop in Idaho Springs just over the hill. He made the stick. It was the late 1890's. His family was there until the 1940's when they died out. I got it from a family friend of the Stroehles who had lived next door.” The workmanship is outstanding and it's very unusual for a miniature stick to have a full size thimble. The Geo. Stroehle and Sons Machine Shop was a long time business in Idaho Springs.]](Stroehle Small Stick pic2.JPG) |
