Guys, thanks for the information. It definitely has a sweet smell to it but not the one you get from mom's apple pie...it's that kind of smell that makes you want to gag and as a result I'm getting that baby framed back up quickly

Bakelite only comes in dark colors. Perhaps its catalin, which is a very close cousin. Bakelite and catalin are made from the same base chemicals, but catalin can come in bright colors. Due to the shared chemicals, they have the same smell under hot water.
Both are vintage plastics but not from the 1800s. Last edited by drcy; 07-14-2013 at 10:07 PM.
