Not sure if this belongs Here, but Ive enjoyed looking at years of cool advertising pieces in this thread and wanted to contribute somehow.

neat advertising mirror but missing a few parts. I went back and forth all week about it - contacted the seller - tried to justify the retail - aesthetics - 90.00 shipping - whatever. I have a slightly earlier Duke advertising mirror with globe and wicks (also includes a tobacco insert card) made by the same company although a little "prettier" and complete. Ginter is a core of my accumulation so I was faced with a real predicament. I was fairly sure it wouldn't get a bid and I might have a shot to negotiate. You have some super advertising but didn't think of you. Curses!! ......and congratulations.

Bob, I too was watching that mirror, pretty neat, similar sentiments as Henry but sometimes you just need to bite. Congrats! I suspect Henry would have been all in if it were more complete.
JC, awesome 1892 Schedule, very nice. I normally don't gravitate outside of 19th century slide and shell cigarette packs but couldn't resist a Detroit chewing tobacco by the name of "WOLVERINE". This wooden storage bin/bucket has a 10lb Series of 1875 tax stamp that was canceled in 1876. The top and bottom have clear stamps for Nevin & Mills Wolverine Tobacco, very complete, everything is present.

I had a suspicion pieces were missing however given the choices of owning this or nothing, I obviously chose owning it. I guess my other rationalization was that it displays pretty nicely as is and I have no issues displaying it as is.
Joe, that is a killer display piece, definitely worth stretching your collecting area! |
