Late 1800s / early 1900s advertising glass paper weight for The Herald press. Great condition for its age with no chips/cracks or major issues. Some obvious wear/fading from age and use.

In 1904, Willis Kilmer founded his own newspaper, The Binghamton Press, which in time became a well-respected publication. Some believed that Willis’s true reason for establishing this paper was primarily as a means to advertise his company’s products, but also to attempt to put out of business the Binghamton Evening Herald, a rival paper who was very outspoken against patent medicines. Kilmer’s paper often “debunked” the Evening Herald’s claims.

When the Herald had to close, the owner sued Willis Kilmer for conspiracy to put his paper out of business. However, this lawsuit was unsuccessful.
