Description: Scarce little Christmas candy container ornament in the shape of a bell....unmarked, however likely dates c. 1890's....each bell measures 4 3/4" tall by 5 1/4" wide....made of pasteboard/thin cardboard....wonderful lithography....Excellent Condition....retains the original candy container between the two bells....vibrant colors with no fading....both bells are crisp without bends or creases....retains the original cotton gauze hanging ribbon....candy container itself has a few issues: the closure tab is detached, there is a 1/4" tear next to the closure tab, the flap with the closure tab has some bends, and the side flaps which fold in have some separation along the seams....overall exceptional considering its rarity....from a non-smoking and pet-free home....please study all photos, feel free to ask questions, and be sure to check out my other interesting antique auctions! A note about shipping: This fragile little antique will be packed with great care and double-boxed.
