Beautiful wrap color... and it is amazing what you can accomplish buffing out hardware on a wheel. Thanks for sharing.

Question... Is the drum dated specifically to 1929 because the wrap was available that one year?

I wrote "1929" as just an estimate. The finish was short-lived and was offered from 1928 until about 1931. Unfortunately, I dont have the 1930 catalog (not sure there was one) but I'm guessing Emerald was discontinued by 1931-32. It's definitely absent from the 1932 catalog and never appears again.

Definitely! Thanks!

Thanks. Obviously, this is my all time favorite finish and the only thing I actually collect. Talk about a narrow field of interest!

Here is the page from 1929........

So cool. Look at that backdrop artwork! Finishes are amazing...

It's all the narrow fields of interest that keep so much esoteric knowledge alive. Well done!
