this is marked A. Schrader's Son N.Y. Pat. Sept. 27, 92' and on the finial has a "G", "Trademark", and image of keyhole. This guy invented the rubber inner tube Valve stem in 1889 and they still use them on every car. the company is still open. Does anyone know what this goes on or what it is? I would appreciate any info I can gather on it. There's just not any online that I can find. Thank you so much. cmharding at yoo hoo
