ANTIQUE MINIATURE ROYAL CROWN COLA BOTTLE LIGHTER
Approx. 2 3/4" tall, miniature vintage antique Royal Crown Cola (RC Cola) bottle, metal, "Best by Taste-Test", opens but I cannot seem to get it all the way open to show the actual lighter. I assume it is a lighter, and it has the weight to indicate it is not hollow.
Early to mid 1900s, nice advertising piece, good vintage condition.

COOL WHIMSICAL 1940s-50s BRASS AL CAPP SCHMOO PIN NR!
From my own collection comes this RARE SCHMOO collectible brooch or pin or badge. Schmoo, a character in Lil' Abner, the AL CAPP classic comic strip is perhaps the most sought after of the comic characters, which include KIGMY , Mammy Yokum, and of course the rest of the gang. It is made of brass with enamelled facial features, eyes, whiskers, and a big smiling mouth. He's about 1.5" by 1" and is well constructed, NOT like toy jewelry!
The charming figural has a three dimensional bubbly effect and is in VERY good to excellent condition. Minimal scratches, if any, most of the black enamelling is still intact so you can still see his positive expression, and a functional safety. ALL ORIGINAL! Hasn't been polished or altered in any way. |
