I have one old Eveready Cat With 9 Lives C cell battery and one old
Burgess nine volt battery.Burgess M6 battery, thin cardboard cover, red
and white and black, vertical white and black stripes around the sides
of the Burgess battery.It has two snap on/snap off style connectors on
top of the battery, similar to modern day nine volt batteries, but the
connectors on my old Burgess battery are spaced further apart, distance
wise.There is a Howard's (Howard's discount stores, they went out of
business around here years ago) store price sticker/label on the Burgess
battey, $1.47.I think my Burgess battery dates back to the 1950s.I think
my old Eveready C cell Cat With 9 Lives battery dates back to the
1960s.About two or three years ago, I saw a website which has the logos
of old, old batteies of various brand names and you can print out the
logos with your computer printer and glue the logos on modern day
batteries.

A couple of buddies of mine collect old, old Railroad related
thingys.One of them owns some old, old big glass batteies like the kind
that the Railroads and other companies used to use many, many years ago.
