Small collection of glass figural candy containers. My favorite is the Pistol with candy and the little car. Also there is the suitcase, 2 lanterns, tea kettle, dog with cart, bull dog with chain around his neck, and captians hat. These were sold in the 4o's and 50's and are reproduced. I had a dog with cart as a kid but i think this and the bull dog are reproductions. Ones still with candy are for sure early examples. Thanks for looking.
