Vintage
Bakelite Tobacco Set - Mint in Original Box

This is an
amazing collection in incredible condition! It includes two pipes
with wooden lining that have NEVER been used. In addition, there
is a cigarette holder and a cigar holder which have both been
used, but very gently. There is also an ashtray. All the pieces
feature a beautiful golden yellow bakelite complemented by a blood
red on the pipes and a swirled amber on the cigar and cigarette
holders. I believe that each of the mouth pieces has been hand
cut as is shown in the pictures. The ashtray, also never used,
has a spot for two cigarettes and is also in the golden color
bakelite. These five pieces have been carefully placed in their
original box. The interior lid of the box is lined in a beautiful
blue padded fabric. The base is lined in a soft, plush fabric
with a molded space for each individual item. The box itself is
six-sided and the dark brown paper exterior is printed with leather-like
textured print. The front clasp is brass. The paper edges have
become a bit unglued at some spots, but probably easy to restore.
The back (base) of the box is a blue paper. The top has a small
stamp-like label with "65" printed in pencil. There is also a
stamped mark, "Made in Czechoslovakia". This is an absolutely
stunning set!

Early
Native American Indian Basket

This basket
is a great size at 10" in diameter. There are three colors: a
reddish umber, black and natural. The basket has a nice patina.
It is slightly shiny on the exterior. There is some wear to the
base. There are minor problems inside the basket. It looks as
though it may have had an extra weaving around the top. I can't
help with the tribe. It is a very old example of a Native American
Indian basket. I like the fact that it was obviously used in daily
life. We have left the basket as found (a bit dusty.) Buy

This auction
is for a small collection of New York World's Fair memorabilia,

4-1/2") Black plastic tray (7-3/4" x 10") Set of 3 Reversible

The ashtray has not been removed from its original box and is
by "HouseArt". It is black with colorful designs. I don't know
what it is made of, but would guess glass. The black plastic tray
says "New York World's Fair 1964 - 1965 Unisphere ® Peace Through
Understanding". The open table mats feature the following famous
New York monuments: Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty,
George Washington Bridge, East River Showing Brooklyn, Manhattan

wrapped mats include a paper label which reads: "Unisphere® presented
by United States Steel © New York World's Fair 1964-1965 Corporation"

what the top mat features: New York World's Fair Unisphere. Buy

Vintage
Egyptian Pharos Salt and Pepper Shakers by Wales

This is a
great addition to your salt and pepper shaker collection. Or,
maybe you just are a fan of things Egyptian. The salt is someone
like Cleopatra, while the pepper is perhaps Tutenkamen. King Tut
has a nice dark brown surface enhanced with gold lustre and a
turquoise and gold lustre headress. Cleo is the same color, dons
a gold lustre bra and a pink and gold lustre headress. She also
has lovely blue eyes with long eyelashes. On the back of each
is the original label, "Wales Reg. U.S. Pat. Off. MADE IN JAPAN".
The label on Cleopatra is complete, while that on Tut has been
mostly removed. They each still have the original corks in their
bases. There are no chips or cracks. There is the slightest bit
of crazing on the uncolored parts that you can detect with a magnifying
glass. Overall a nice, fun pair to own and use. Buy
it on eBay!

Official
Water Polo Ball 1984 Olympics Los Angeles

This auction
is for an actual ball used in the 1984 Olympics Silver Medal game
by the U.S.A. team. It is number 23 (as shown above). We acquired
the ball from a man who was an official at that game. There were
apparently a limited number of balls used, and each one was numbered.
It is in good condition, but is starting to show some signs of
age (it does need air, too). However, it is anxious to be a part
of your Olympics collection! Buy
it on eBay!
