Jack Daniel's 1904 mirror
Hello:
First time poster here, with a Jack Daniel's mirror. I believe it to be quite old, and looking for help in determining that. It is approximately 10" wide by 14" high, wood framed. It has an ovaled portion that says (among other things), "90 proof", "Gold medal winner", "1904 St. Louis World's fair Exposition".
Outside the oval, it is red, inside is black and gold. There is a perimiter/border around the oval that is clear, as well as the words "Jack Daniel's" also being clear. Behind that clear see-through portion you can see silver embossed type material, and in moving the back of the mirror slightly, you can see that this silver is a separate sheet laying behind the glass.
The red border is showing age around the edges, being dried-out crackling.
I have never seen a modern mirror made in this fashion, leading me to believe it may be quite old.
Anyone help? I can take a picture and post it, if necessary.
my thanks,
Dave
