These were found in a box of old light bulbs that cost 1.00 at a garage sale, Don't have a clue what the green thing is but the light socket heaters are neat and all work ( can't imagne what amount of current they draw ) Anyone out there who can tell me what the green ceramic thing is? Its about 4 1/2 inches long all ceramic with a standard light socket base. You find some strange things when you buy box lots!

without a doubt these are not something that would be used today, can you imagine the lawyers linning up for product liability cases!!! that being said back then MOST people had enough sense on how to use something without causing a problem and the ones that didnt just emptyed the gene pool.

    I got a couple neat things I've kept over the years. I have them all over the place. most in a small table top display case. Check these out. First up is a little hand painted pottery cup. Dont these kids have a disturbed look on their faces while playing in the Bananna Patch?

         Can you see the guy sitting in this outhouse? Would could have been the purpose of this. Hole in door looks like it might have hung on something. Its a Pottery type material. Made in Japan on the back lower rim.

            This one my freind thinks is a Cane Topper. I'm not convinced of that just due to the fact that it would be most uncomfortable  on the palm of your hand. I say Inkwell.

         Oh one more. This is one of my favorites. The Black mans head is very interesting. Too big to hold a candle. I have no idea what this could have been. Its milk glass, and very detailed. The used razor blade elephant has adverttizing for some Shaving cream on the bottom. The stamp unfortunately only hit half the base. Its still cool though. Again excellent detail..

The green thing is also a heater and is less likely to burst into flames if you are not sitting there staring at it.

The dice thing is a decanter stopper.
