Item Description
4" celluloid with interior added weight to serve as mirror and paperweight combo. Silvering is 99% intact. Underside metal rim has black paint flakes missing but still 60% intact and without oxidation but with just a tiny age mark of 1/8" on top rim edge at 12 o'clock. Marvelous color food product graphics against deep black background. The product was introduced in 1894 when the Igleheart Brothers discovered a new way to mill wheat resulting in a light and soft flour. This is pre-1926 when the firm joined General Foods. Another stunning color advertising specialty by W&H. Cello is Exc. Three seen in our 54 years. Rare.
