Description
This is a very hard-to-find tin and glass figural cannon-shaped candy container that was made by the Jeannette Glass Company of Pennsylvania. It has the original gold metallic screw-on cap and the condition is excellent. There is no oxidation and it has almost all of its original red paint. There are just a few very fine scratches and chips.The glass cannon is also in excellent condition. The tin is very thin, and normally when you see these, they are banged up and missing a ton of paint. Someone obviously took care of this. I believe it dates from the teens or 1920s.
The length of the entire piece is about 4.75". The cannon barrel is 3.75" long. These are quite scarce in any condition.
