No great BIN story this time, just old fashioned bid auction action. Paid all of 80% book value for this near mint celluloid-covered gem. Just a hair over 2 3/4" length, I was a little surprised by its wee size. I love the smalls just as much as the big pieces. Mirror edge is marked "J.B. Carroll, Chicago" in tiny black font, then, not much larger white font "Duplicate Mirrors 5¢ Postage. Coca-Cola Company, Atlanta, GA". 104 yrs old.
Hope everybody has a great weekend.

Very nice mirror! Hard to find!! I'm looking for the tip tray.
Thanks spriteboy42. Good luck on your quest for a tip tray to match your sweet serving tray.
Good grab Dave!! Glad to see you can still bid em, lol.
Thanks Tom. You know I prefer BIN over BID!
That is hard to find indeed! Well done Dave!
Thanks Perry for stopping by. Someday I'll take a page out of your book and display this with my other smalls in a curio top table or vintage cabinet. Your stuff looks really cool that way!
