TURTLE SPITTOON

Golden & Jacobsons
Pat'd Nov. 10, 1891

It is a bit difficult to read because of its age.

This is a "working" spittoon!
The turtle's head, when stepped on, will raise his shell
and reveal the tin spitton cup inside.
The cup has a small, attached handle that rests in a
fitted slot for secure storing when the turtle's shell is closed.
The cup is easily removable for emptying.

This spittoon measures aprox. 14" long by 11" wide by 4" high.

It is in wonderful, vintage (and used) condition!
It is all original and complete .
It is completely functional and has very little wear, if any.

This turtle has been in my parents personal collection for
years and years! They were great admirers of unusal antique items.

But, now it's time for someone else to enjoy this unique item.
It will be a wonderful addition to your tobacciana or
early cast iron collection or a spectacular gift for
that favorite collector in your life!
