One industrial infrastructure builder’s plaque manufactured by the Bethlehem Steel Company. The rectangular cast iron plaque features a scalloped corner design and is embossed with lettering reading “Built by / Bethlehem Steel / COMPANY / 1950 centered around the company's trademark "I" beam shield emblem. The textured, pebble-grained background has a dark, seasoned finish while the prominent raised lettering and plain border stand out in relief. There are four mounting holes located at the four corners of the plate for bolting onto heavy steel structures.
The Bethlehem Steel Company was an industrial superpower during the mid-20th century. Founded in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, the company grew from a local iron manufacturer into the second-largest steel producer in the United States. The company's massive output and engineering innovations fueled the post-WWII American infrastructure boom. Steel forged by Bethlehem Steel was utilized in constructing iconic national landmarks, including the Golden Gate Bridge, the Empire State Building, and the Hoover Dam.
Bridge builders' plaques like this 1950 model were standard installations on civil engineering projects. Bolted directly onto bridges, overpasses, and heavy rail structures, these permanent markers served to stamp the manufacturer's mark of engineering pride onto public works. The centerpiece logo highlights Bethlehem's revolutionary wide-flange "I" beam, a patented structural shape that allowed for lighter, stronger spans and effectively shaped the modern urban skyline.
These heavy iron casting plates serve as rare physical monuments to Bethlehem Steel, the industrial giant whose structural steel forged the American century. Following the post-war decline of domestic heavy industry and the company's 2003 dissolution, these plaques became highly prized artifacts of industrial archaeology and vintage Americana. They endure as lasting symbols of the muscle that constructed the modern world.

Check to see if you need an adapter
Color: Black-Phone Holder-31.5"x15.8"
Very nice pad, good size and neat looking. Charges the phone and do not need a separate charger.
ONE WORD OF CAUTION. I expected to be able to hook it up and use as delivered. BUT, expecting a USB
compatible wire that fits into a normal plug, I needed an adapter to be able to plug it into a plug adapter.
The ad needs to be able to highlight the fact that you may need an adapter.

Mouse Pad Charger
Color: Black-27.5"x11.8"
I absolutely love the mouse pad. It fits my 17.3 inch laptop nicely and my mouse. It's great for charging my phone next to me while I work. Unfortunately, it does not work for the Air Pods. It must be for an older version. Nonetheless, it's still a great buy.

A good product
Color: Black-27.5"x11.8"
Size is accurate and this is important in my situation as I use a pull out key tray and wanted edge to edge coverage. Depth is good but in my case I would have liked a deeper dimension as an option. Phone charger works well, the mouse slides smoothly

Will not charge your phone
Color: Black-Stock Market-31.5"x15.8"(with Wall Charger)
I love this mat, but it doesn't do what it says... I bought this mat for the candlesticks! The charging station was a bonus. It is very large and covers my working area, which I like. But when I go to charge my phones, it doesn't work! I placed my Android phone on the magnetic charging circle, and it showed the lightning bolt charging icon. I looked at it 5 minutes later to see how much it charged, and it was at the same % when I put it on, and the lightning bolt was gone. I tried three times, and it never charged! I then tried with my Apple phone, and the same thing, it doesn't charge. Buy this for the mat's aesthetics only; don't expect it to charge phones or earbuds...
