Wow this set is pristine and oh-so-cute. Two eskimos and their igloo in winter white. Original cardboard inset in place and the box itself is in excellent condition. The Socony-Vacuum Oil Company of Los Angeles hired Franklin Gurley to start making a whole line of vibrant decorative candles for them that would help use up paraffin, an otherwise discarded substance rom oil refining. During the late 1930s and 1940s, these candles were sold at Woolworths and also at the famous department store, Macy's. The candles came in all sorts of artistic shapes Bunnies, Duckies, Pixies, Rabbits, etc and were sold under the brand name Tavern Candles. I have more candles listed this week as well, all from the same collector. Thanks for looking and happy bidding. -Hedi
