I have a puzzler.
All of the small buildings here (fuel house, chicken house, carriage house, etc) have a layer of metal under the siding. The metal is thin and shiny. Think furnace trunk line material. All of these sheets are newspaper sized and printed with newsprint. The printing is on the metal with ink, not raised. I originally thought it was the printing blanks off of the drum, but it is not reversed and done with ink. What are these?
The neighbors shed is done with the same thing. Someone must have had a friend at the newspaper. She doesn't recall how that got there and it is a century farm so it must have been discards they got free or something. I have read the obituaries when I cut a window opening but I can't recall the date on it. I want to say 40's. Anyone seen this before on old buildings?
Oh, and I would be using my TRACTORS right now but it is raining and too wet for field work. :+)
