Warning sign by the Fetid Lake of Doom, claiming that this body of water is infested with New Zealand Mud Snails. However, we know this is just a cover. The authorities really want to protect the citizens from caimans, which abound in the Lake during the warm months, but officials are afraid of causing widespread panic if the truth came out. Hence, this little fairy tale to keep people away.

"First in Connecting People with Information"

I believe this was created for some event. The same buttons were issued in different colors to designate some kind of training groups, I think.

Cataloging

Washington State Library

On reverse: Mfg. by Reeves Co., Inc. Attleboro, Mass.

I'm just guessing at what decade this was made. And before you ask, the Anglos do include the letter "u" in  "Catalogue" or "Cataloguing" but the United States does not.
