Directory: Popular Collectibles: Toys: Specialty: Pre 1960: Item # 113537
Please refer to our stock # G343 when inquiring.
This type of display would have been placed on the counter next to the checkout register with the gum and candy to entice little girls and boys to purchase a whistle!
The display box cover features a city policeman demonstrating the authentic and powerful amplitude of the whistles. The cover has a perforated seam that was unfastened when the box was displayed open so that the policeman and city skyline stood tall above the whistles.
Condition: Whistles are all original and complete, in excellent, mint condition. Display box is in near-mint condition; subtle edge wear as seen in photos, one small, partial seam separation at the base of the box cover, where the tab tucks into the box base for closure (see last photo).
Marked ALL AMERICAN PLASTIC WHISTLES with no other maker’s mark evident. A 70+ year old, very cool and colorful, stand-out, Baby Boomer Collectible!
