Description: THIS IS A COAL MINE SCATTER TAG USED BY THE CRUMMIES CREEK COAL COMPANY LOCATED AT CRUMMIES KENTUCKY IN HARLAN COUNTY.

THIS WAS AN ADVERTISEMENT FOR COAL COMPANIES WHEN COAL WAS BEING BURNED BY THE RECEIVING CUSTOMER. 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.
