Any information on this item would be appreciated...year, rarity, value, anything would be helpful. It says Made in USA 35 on the bottom.
Also, can you clean these or should I just leave it as is? Thanks much!
These are advertised as 1930's , that 35 could mean 1935, they are in demand with collectors, condition means alot on value, $100 - $500
It's a beauty! OK to wipe off lightly using a soft cloth and water. Does not look to need any cleaning, really. Wipe too hard on these and paint will come off (I know from experience). EJW is right. I see this piece bringing 100-200 on the eBay.

Thanks for the information, I appreciate it. It still has color but the colors are somewhat dull (from age I'm sure). There are no dents in it, both hangers are intact, it's just missing the thermometer. I thought about trying to add one if it would help the value.
