Description: This rare ornamental hammer was patented by Mitteldorfer Strauss of New York City, New York on January 10, 1928. Strauss’ hammer is a design patent, meaning the patent protects the way the hammer looks rather than the way it is used. This hammer was believed to be used for hammering nails or nut shells! The goat appears to be holding something in its mouth, which can be used as the striking end of the hammer. Its horns form the claw of the hammer. The bronze-head hammer was believed to have been given away as a premium with the purchase of a sack of flour much like getting a prize from a cereal or Cracker Jack box. Billy Boy Laundry Detergents eventually repurposed the hammer as an item included in the purchase of blocks of their laundry detergent. It measures 8 5/8" long x 2 3/4" wide (goats head). This would make a great gift for the "goat" in your family. "greatest of all time".
