Enjoy scrolling through EAPG (Early American Pattern/Pressed Glass), with various other items in smaller quantity: other vintage glass, pottery, silver, pewter, old coins, collector books, etc. Victorian antique phonographs collected in the 1950-60’s are being added slowly; new, unused, precious and semi-precious gem jewelry, some uniques, are added as time permits; older costume jewelry will be added as it is sorted. See below (About us) for the big picture! I am strictly a collector, not an expert or a dealer. I’m just lucky enough to be able to handle a lot of “stuff.” ;) |

Figural bank made to resemble heavyweight boxing champion Joe Louis who held the title from 1937 until he retired in 1949, this clear bank with metal lid is in *Near-mint condition. The glass is clear & bright, without damage, showing relief printing under the base: "Design patent no. 112688 1." The lid has some edge wear of the red & cream colored paint, with minor interior rust spots (see photos below). Lots of printing on the lid: "Lucky Joe Bank. Nash’s Prepared Mustard. Nash-Underwood, Inc. Chicago. Coin Slot," plus list of ingredients, etc. Obviously this was originally a mustard container! See photos. For fun, I’ve included a shot of the original drawings I found at the USPO (patent) site which dates origin to 1938. Height with lid is 4 3/8". Buyer to pay for shipping by USPS Priority with Delivery Confirmation, 2 lbs. from 06068. #265 |
