Item Description
8.75x9.5x2.5” deep box originally contained 24 candy bars by Bunte Brothers of Chicago and San Francisco. ©1931 P.L. Crosby. Box lid has Percy Crosby art showing Skippy and his friends. Main panel illustration shows Skippy holding chocolate bar in hand as friend looks on, Skippy saying “Don’t Ya Wish We Had Two?” Box shows wear at corners with creases radiating from them due to concave of lid. Box lid and bottom remain free of any splits. Box bottom had original illustrated insert for display but this has been partially removed. Lid has some scattered age spotting. Fine. One of the rarest and most colorful/graphic of all comic character candy boxes.
