Set of Six (6) Vintage Pressed Domino outlet Sugar Tablets, Advertising New York World's Fair/The Brass Rail NYC, c. 1939
This is a fantastic lot of six (6) vintage pressed sugar tablets, made by Domino/American Sugar Refining Company. They are wrapped in paper, and feature a picture of the New York World's Fair on one side, and advertisement for The Brass Rail restaurant on 7th Ave at 49th Street in NYC on the other side, and a message to visit the New York World's Fair 1939 on the other long side. These little sugar tablets are just chock full of interesting history! Frank Sinatra was fond of eating at one of the various restaurants at the Brass Rail, perhaps these were on his table while he dined!
They are all in great condition, still sealed. The paper has acquired some yellowing over the years, some wrinkles and folds in the paper, but not other significant concerns aside from those issues. Two of the packs have some marks, perhaps from printing errors, or ink transfer from a pen, and it appears the marks nearly match.
Each packet is 1-1/8" x .75"W x .25"H, I think they contain a tablespoon of pressed sugar.
Great addition to a memorabilia collection about either the NY World's Fair, or for famous restaurants of NYC.
*Selling as the lot, will not separate.
As these are vintage items, consideration should be made in regards to the condition due to age, wear, and/or use, storage or previous environment conditions.
I have described the items as well as possible, including any flaws, and may look slightly different than the photos show due to lighting and quality of the camera.
Selling 'As-Is/As-Found'. As I am liquidating an estate, everything must go, and returns will not be accepted. Refunds will only be issued if the item was damaged due to poor packaging for shipping, or lost, so every effort is made to get your item/s to you outlet safely and intact! If damage does occur, and it is indeed my fault, I will need photos of the damaged item and packaging to document for my estate records prior to issuing a refund.
I do re-use and recycle packaging materials and good boxes. Pet friendly and smoke free home. I do combine shipping on multiple items, and refund overages.
Thank you very much for visiting my shop!
