Old plastic one-eyed Jack sailor pin made of white plastic with pink painted head and hands and black painted eye, collar, shoes, and double stripes on his sleeves. Eye and sailor hat are in relief. Plastic loops connect the legs and arms to the torso so that they swing freely. Clear plastic pin back with a plastic c-clasp is on the back. Clasp is in good working condition. Measures 2 5/8" long. There is some pink showing through on the eye, however the white spots on the rest of the sailor are glare, not paint missing. A really wonderful old vintage piece.

Beautiful cherry red bakelite triangle with a square cherry red bakelite clock dangling from it. The mounting is brass and there is wear on it. The hands of the clock spin around, because of this, there are some scratches on the bakelite. The pendulum of the clock moves. It also has some wear. The pin measures 4" x 1 7/8". The pin mechanism is imbedded in the bakelite and the safety clasp is in good working condition. Unusual!

This is a scary looking locust pin made of old white plastic with a brown painted head body and legs. The eyes look like a goldish color. There is just a touch of paint wear on a few high spots, but the way it is painted, it is hard to tell paint loss from technique. The back has an old c-clasp imbedded in the plastic. The plastic itself is marked “FRANCE”. The locust measures 2 3/4" x 7/8". It is really quite neat in a creepy kind of way.

This is a beautiful red hand coming out of a red laced sleeve, holding 5 cherries on stems of red coated string. The stems are also attached to the back of the hand to make it look like the hand is actually holding the cherries. The unfortunate thing is there are 9 stems coming from the back of the hand, and only 5 cherries. Also, there is a little wear to the red on the stems. I would be possible to remove 4 of the stems coming out the back of the hand so it looks like there are 5 stems, but I will leave it to the buyer to make that call. The safety clasp is in good working condition. Hand measures 3" and the cherries, from stem to fruit, measure 3 3 /4". This is a beautiful pin and for what it is, it is in good vintage condition.

Carved butterscotch bakelite streamline bird in flight applied to a dark stained piece of wood. A glass eye is wired through the bakelite and into the wood, hence the divot in the back of the wood where the wire is tucked inside it. The beak of the bird tapers to the wood, which is painted yellow. Although the bakelite beak looks blunted, it does blend into the wood and does not appear broken. The c-clasp is in good working condition. Measures 3 3/4" x 1". A really nice combination of bakelite and wood.
