This neat tray came from a recent estate sale. It is from the University of Miami. Its in pretty good shape but there are scratches across the design at an angle and i am not sure if they are supposed to be there or not. They remind me of what it would look like if someone had sliced bread on the tray. When I first saw it I thought it was part of the design so again i am not positive and there arent any that i could find online to compare it with. The tray measures 14.25 inches across and comes up the sides about an inch. There are no dings or dents..it is rather dirty and needs a good cleaning. The tray says the Seal of the University of Miami then the seal in the middle it says Science (below that Magna Est), Literature and Art and under that it says Founded in Florida 1925. The tray is not marked and I have no idea who made it nor do i know exactly when it was made. A neat tray for an alumni!

Please note that the shipping quote includes insurance and delivery confirmation. By bidding on my item you are agreeing to pay the shipping cost quoted. Please do not bid if you intend to complain or leave low scores on the shipping and handling feedback ratings. I do not make money on shipping. I have a low breakage ratio because I spend money buying good packing materials. Sometimes there is an overcharge as I do estimate high on the package weight and if that is the case I always issue a refund.

All items are stored in a smoke free home! Sometimes family and friends save boxes and packing material for me as I am a nut about recycling. Some of them smoke in their homes. When I bring boxes etc home that have been given to me I store them with my shipping supplies in my garage and hope they will be aired out before I use them. If you are allergic to smoke please let me know and I will make sure a box and packing material is not from those sources. However once it leaves here I have no control over postal employees who smoke while driving around delivering mail.

Please remember that when you are bidding on vintage, antique, secondhand, collectible and estate items- most are not 100% perfect and will show some evidence of age, usage and general wear. I buy what I like and sell them as I find them. I do not attempt to make repairs and rarely even clean them. I try to describe items as honestly and accurately as possible and some things that I see as normal aging, others might see as a flaw or defect. I do not claim to be an expert and don’t always know what to look for when examining an item SO PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH QUESTIONS.

I usually don’t use UPS but have no problem doing so if you want it shipped that way. If I put 2 shipping options in you need to let me know as soon as the auction closes how you want your item shipped. If I don’t hear from you I will use the cheapest option available. I do combine s/h to save you money if you want to purchase more items.

For International Shipping please email me for a shipping quote if I didn’t put the calculator on the listing. If you are overcharged on shipping I will do a partial refund through Paypal. I’ll also email you a copy of the postal receipt which has the customs form for your records. You might be able to use the customs number to track your item if it gets lost. It just depends on your country. Please note if you do want First Class International shipping which is the cheapest way to ship (THERE IS NO INSURANCE or tracking available) and it can only be used on packages weighing less than 4 pounds. If you choose First Class International you do so at your own risk. Although I have never had a package lost or an item broken when shipped this way the odds are it will happen at some point in time. I will make Priority Mail an option as well then your package will be covered by an indemnity for loss or damage. Please note I will not alter the selling price nor put gift on a customs form so please do not bother to ask . Import duties, taxes and charg...
