Item Description
Each is spring steel with 1.75" button-like celluloid disc mounted on the front. The top two have minor wear on the metal clip but both of the celluloids are Exc. and display Mint. At the bottom left the one reading "The Ideal Package" has some tiny black specks under the celluloid at upper left and another single mark at far right but these are as made and the piece has very little actual wear. The last item has oxidation on the metal clip and some tiny age spots on the perimeter of the celluloid but it is likely the earliest and rarest of these showing canister pouring contents into a shaker with the ad phrase "The Perfect Salt At Last."
