Title: Small glass cart
Post by: deco.queen on July 14, 2009, 02:38:17 PM

Anyone have a clue to this cart? Overall length is 4 1/2", 2" tall.  It may be brand new, I don't have any idea! 
Thanks for looking!

Janice —

WOW!

New to me, but looks OK as a turn of the century novelty.   The vulnerable towbar could explain its scarcity — just imagine how long that would survive in a toy box.   There's nothing about it that says it's not British, but that's a long way from saying it is.   Others may know more.

Great find.

I saw one of these today in a charity shop, it felt and looked to me to be modern and pressed glass (from a two part mould?). You can see the seam on the towbar in the last of the photographs above.

If anyone wants I will go back and buy it (assuming it is still there) and post it to them (all at cost). If interested reply by clicking on the mail icon by my name so as not to clutter this thread. Hope this is OK and does not break any board rules.
