Topic: Glass "CAR" Candy Holder (?)

[antiquerose123]

Hi....I have this glass piece.  Someone once said to me that candy used to come in this type of containers.  I was recently at a Antique Fair, and did see some much smaller ones (eg. small bottle, a train) but have not seen a large car.  Is this what it was for ?  Is that correct?

Whom made these, what year, and what would be the value?  Any sites to refer to would greatly be appreciated. 

Thanks in advance.

There are several books on these

Any reference web pages ( or good book titles), as I have not found a match to this yet    Nor do I know who is the maker of these.

Thanks
