I think the Homelite memoribilia is so cool. My wife would kill me if I started down that road too. I wonder how much compression you got on that little saw. L.O.L.
Neat find. Jon

That looks like a printing block, used in a printing press perhaps for ad layout. Very cool.

I have a belt buckle shaped like a saw, but the dang thing is so heavy, it pulls my pants off before I can get it buckled.

I just went and pulled it out of my belt drawer, it's a generic chains saw. Looks more like a big Echo with a side air filter. When my climber retired he gave it to me. He's about 5'7" and a 135 pounds. I also found one my mom gave me when I was about 5 years old. She worked for the American Trucking Association. For their 50th anniversary, they gave out brass belt buckles with a 50's vintage tractor trailer on it. So, if you think I'm a hoarder, I still have stuff from when I was 5 years old.
Oh, on the back of the belt buckle, it has C9 stamped in it.

Yep that is a copper printer's block. Worked a few years for a snowplow company that started in 1924. In the parts warehouse where I worked there was boxes and boxes of printers blocks used in printing sales literature.
