Plain "DeVILBISS" Atomizer w/BOX

<< < (2/2)

Hotglass:
The name is well known among perfume collectors. It seems that they were the makers of the atomizers rather than the glass. Started 1888 in Ohio. History http://www.itwfinishing.com/history/devilbiss.asp

Harvey Littelton used to collect DeVilbiss and had quite a large collection. I once heard him lecture on it. I have a feeling he produced a catalogue. I think it might have been in a box of stuff that I let Marcus sift through, so I don't know whether it is still there or whether I gave it to Marcus!! Or maybe it is somewhere else! I don't hold out much hope of finding it either way but I'll see if I can dig it out.

aa:
Well, it turns out my memory isn't that bad.....it's about 20 years since the name came up!

I wonder if I can find the actual catalogue now?! ;D
