For Susan, Pam, et. al.

I found two items that give a general idea of the period when an Otto Wagner
of Tiffin, Ohio lived. If he is the same as the Otto Wagner of stoneware jug
fame, it would seem likely that he might have been in business sometime from
the very late 1800's to the early 1900's. Details:
