Item Description
1940s. Only the second example we've been able to offer of this 1.25" without maker's name or back paper. A giant axe blade severs the heads of Tojo, Hitler and Mussolini in one fell swoop. Our one other example had some fade to the red but not the case on this one. Only two things to note. First is faint gray tone on the axe shaft above Mussolini and that appears to be in the paper as made and not moisture stain. Second is tiny gray smudge top right of Tojo's hat which is as printed. High gloss and displays NM. Our lightly faded example in Auction 207 exceeded $300.00. Rare.
