This turned up while I was sorting through some stored bits, last weekend.

It's a pack of silver solder strips that was given to me by one of my older brothers friends, after mentioning that I'd been doing some silver soldering in the engineering class at school. That would be something over fifty years ago.

Just now looking at it out of curiosity to see how much was left, and saw & the inner wrapping has the name "Popular Progress". I searched that to see of the company still existed - and found references to clock keys and mainspring winders! Is that actually from that same company?
