Cook county star : Stainless steel cookbook holder. Cook County Star
Deputy Coroner of Cook County This star belonged to Oscar Wolff, Cook County Coroner in Illinois. It was received from the estate of his daughter, who received it from her father's estate. It came in a package with the other stars shown in this set. Firetruck Flag
These stars were handed out as political favors. To possess one gave the holder police power and the authority to carry a weapon. They were stipped of their authority and declared illegal when Oscar Wolff and the Republican party lost power in Chicago in the 1920's A spotlight illuminated the American flag on one of the pumper trucks. A shoe store, La Baguette Bakery, and Pollo al Carbon, my favorite local Columbian restaurant (they had the best garlic chicken!) were all totally destroyed in the blaze.
