Blast from the past: Cigar Tip Tray

[El Presidente]

I can't recall having seen  a "Cigar tip tray" before. 

TAMPA Glass HavATampa Cigar Tip Tray

This 7-1/2" x 6" clear glass cigar tip tray has a colorful and wonderful decal under the glass for the Hav-A-Tampa cigar company, and looks rather like a box label of the period. The tray is raised on glass walls, and tilts forward so the loose change slides down to the front. Made for the company by Brunhoff Manufacturing of Cincinnati in the early 1920s. Fine condition. The main image in the tray shows little damage or wear. Some of the plain white image on the side panels has flaked away. Beautiful and rare, and sits in a special Riker mount glass-topped display case.
