I have a pre model 40 from 1956 and the sales receipt was from Lake Erie Chemical. It was sold to a Sergeant in the Cleveland PD. I had heard they were mainly into selling gas masks, flare guns and other non standard weapons and survival gear.
I live in the Cleveland area. Here is the receipt. Is this the company or is it Great Lakes Chemical? The title and post have 2 different companies.
