Description: THIS IS TWO COAL MINE SCATTER TAG TRADE NAME "GREAT HEART COAL" PLUS A VINTAGE INK BLOTTER USED BY THE PERU LUMBER & COAL COMPANY SALES AGENT FOR COAL MINED IN HARLAN COUNTY KENTUCKY AT PEABODY COAL'S BLACK MOUNTAIN COAL MINE AT KENVIR, KENTUCKY. SCATTER TAGS ARE TRADE NAMES FOR COAL COMPANIES THAT WERE "SCATTERED" INTO RAILROAD CARS AS COAL WAS BEING LOADED. THIS WAS AN ADVERTISEMENT FOR COAL COMPANIES WHEN COAL WAS BEING BURNED BY THE RECEIVING CUSTOMER. INK BLOTTERS WERE ANOTHER FAVORITE MEANS TO ADVERTISE COAL NAME BRANDS. UNTIL ABOUT THE 1950-1960 ERA COAL WAS THE FUEL OF CHOICE FOR HOME HEATING AND COOKING. ALSO SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS AND INDUSTRIAL PLANTS HAD COAL AS THEIR FUEL CHOICE. THE GOAL FOR SCATTER TAGS WAS TO GET CUSTOMER LOYALTY TO USE THEIR COAL. FOR MORE INFORMATION AND PHOTOS OF SCATTER TAGS GO TO scripcollectors.org.
