    Description

    The black iron turtle dates 1899-1920 .  This turtle was probably a "give away" of some kind.  It is a nice part of Cleland's history.   He is 3in long and 2.2in wide. weighs 5 oz.
    " 1879 the firm quickly earned a reputation for quality paint and varnish products used throughout the world on high-end residences, luxury hotels, and various industrial applications.  In 1899 the aging Taylor stepped aside to make way for the younger Nathaniel D. Chapin, and it was reorganized as the
    Billings-Chapin Company.
    It competed with other local firms to make Cleveland one of the preeminent producers of paint, varnish and dry pigment in the world. This company closed in 1920 becoming Gilden Paints
