Description: Circa 1925 antique glass souvenir paperweight for Henry A. Kries & Sons Co of Baltimore, Maryland. The advertising image features a hobo cartoon, titled "The Result of Price Cutting" and "Yes, I usta be low bidder". Advertised products appear below the firm name: Steam and Mill Supplies, Pipe Fitting, Complete Power Plant Equipment, Manufacturers and Machinists. Address: 6 and 8 West Lombard St., Baltimore, Md. All references to this business I can find are in the 1920's or earlier. Underside has mirror. Rectangular heavy glass. Base is slightly larger than the top (sides slope inward). No indication of manufacturer's name. Condition: Excellent collectible or giftable condition. Graphics and underside backing paper intact without scratches, blemishes, erosion, or deterioration. Mirror does not show loss of silvering. No chips, flakes, breaks, mends, repairs, cracks, hairlines, blemishes, or mentionable boo-boo's. No sickness, discoloration, or residues. Don't feel anything amiss when I run finger around edges. Dimensions: 4.25" Wide x 2.75 Long x 7/8" High Unpacked weight: 13 oz. Always happy to pass through discounts on combined shipping. I only charge actual postage, and always use recycled packing materials. Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles. On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views. I gladly accept returns, but please note I do not pay return postage unless there was a significant error in my description. The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. All dimensions and weights approximate. If you have a question or an assumption on an item prior to purchase, please ask. I much prefer to take the time on the front end to make sure you will be satisfied with your purchase. Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
