Please read this:My wife and I have been buying and accumulating fun & interesting things for many years but we are not collectors for the most part. We don't know all there is to know about many items nor should we be expected to. We buy what catches are fancy and sometimes we sell off duplicates or items we grow tired of to buy other things. Please don't assume that we are a wealth of knowledge and again, don't expect us to be. That is not our obligation. We are not antique dealers so please remove that thought & idea.We don't want to misrepresent anything and if we accidently do, please return the item for a refund . Do not ask to return something if you simply have second thoughts, buyer's remorse, you tried to sell for a profit but couldn't, your spouse is busting your chops about how much you spent, you find one for less, it doesn't fit your décor, or you just wanted to see what it looked like close up. Ask questions before you bid. But again, If we have accidently stated something wrong, please inform us of what we said that was incorrect and if so, we will be more than happy to refund your money. Extrapolations, assumptions on your end, conjecture, simply don't count. We want to know what we stated was incorrect and that is the only reason for a return. If you can't handle that, please refrain from bidding. Remember, this is an auction and not Nordstrom's or Macy's. We are fair and we expect you to be.I collected chewing gum items for many years and have been slowly selling off things. I've now decided to sell this display case that many have tried to buy as long as I can remember. I've never seen another in as nice of condition as this one is. It is totally original right down to the gold wrinkle lettering reversed behind the glass. In the photo it looks a little odd with the shadow double lettering but that is just the camera picking up a "ghost" reflection. In person, that is not so. The showcase is just a little under 11 inches tall, about 7 & 1/2 inches wide, and just under a half foot deep. The original metal display tray shelf is still there and the hinged back door is well secured and works fine. This is a very nice hard to find chewing gum item, especially in this condition.******************************************************************************************To save your time and ours here are some possible answers to the most frequently asked questions:all items sent out of the continental USA must be insured and signed for upon arrival.
