...And BELT PLATES
All the belts I make are copied after originals in public, private or my collection.
Each belt is made in exacting detail per the original copied.
The cast plates we utilize are all made here in the United States, and are expertly crafted directly from originals, and hand finished by myself to ensure accuracy.
Our stamped plates are made from the original dyes, stamped out by Naugatuck Novelty Company, or made by us in our shop.
