I quit smoking about 10 years ago (OK, occasional cigar still, if it's Cuban), but that didn't stop me from buying these glass 1940's ashtrays as enhancement pieces to my T.V. stand display. I bought the small one a few months back for under $10, pretty rough. I thought I was upgrading same size when I bought the larger one last week for $28 (see Petretti's 12 pg 537), was pleasantly surprised to see condition and size. So I feel the T.V. stand display is complete (at least for now!). Purists, you'll be happy to note the 50's carrier is no longer a T.V. remote holder. Hope I'm forgiven... :)

LOL, It's always good when you're wrong to your own benefit Dave! Very cool finds! Coke is it!
I like the ashtrays Dave, But I am wodering, when did the second pretzel dish show up.........?? I keep missing those buggers when they come up. The last one was whisked away from me with merely seconds left, a few months ago ,LOL!!
Thanks Tom. Yes, I did end up buying a second pretzel bowl early June to even things up on that side of the table. Keep looking, good deals are out there to be had. Nice pretzel dishes come up and are going in the neighborhood of 120.
Sweet display Dave!! I especially like the "Coke on Ice" ,nice touch!!!
Thanks Bernie, great to hear from you. That "ice" is oriented polystyrene resin!
