Ansonia Police Department seeks owner of found bicycle
The Ansonia Police Department has recovered a bicycle that we believe may belong to a local resident. We are looking to reunite it with its rightful owner.
If you believe this bicycle belongs to you, proof of ownership will be required before it can be released.
Please contact Sergeant Castillo at the Ansonia Police Department at 203-922-3158.
Please share this post to help us get this bicycle back where it belongs!
'Turnback Tuesday' features Shelton Basket Company
Turnback Tuesday is highlighting a local manufacturer. Shelton Basket Company was founded in 1911 by Abraham Lavietes.
The company was an historic manufacturer of woven wood and oak-splint, laundry hampers, delivery and insulated picnic baskets. This Gathering Basket is clearly marked with the Shelton Basket name or logo on the handle. The company moved out of Connecticut in 1960.
The Shelton Historical Society has these wonderful baskets as part of their historic collection. This basket was used by Harry Berman to collect tomatoes from his garden.
Thanks goes to Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
