At some point the metal tip on the end of the cane was replaced with a rubber tip.

Cane shows signs of wear. Engraving is in good legible condition.
A nice addition to any established or beginning collection.
The engraving on the cane reads as follows...
Chicago World's Fair 1933
Roscoe Augsbury
We looked up this name and found a Roscoe L. Augsbury living in Venice, Michigan during the 1930's. Venice, Michigan was only 3hrs and 45 minutes from Chicago....so, possibly, this could be the same person named on the cane. We don't know this for certain, so, we are not positive in identifying the owner.
Measurement
36 inches long x 1inch wide.
