Recently won an E-bay auction for a set of thimbles, which included these old advertising thimbles, 11 for $11 ,delivered to the door, not a bad go, as the Coke books @$40!.
Too bad there is'nt a Petretti's style book for all things vintage, as I've no idea what the others are worth,not that it matters I guess.
There is a Superior Chevrolet, 562 E. Wash.St.IndianapolisLL673,
TheFamily Fraternity Woodmen of the World, Omaha ,Nebraska,
andHerald Life Insc.Jacksonville, Florida.
This started as an inherited collection, but once I saw a Coca-cola version thimble, I knew I'd need to add to it!
Fantastic collection Bernie. I love that display, very cool. I'm a big fan of "smalls" and your showing some sweet ones there!
Thanks Dave, they are smalls fer sure, won't fit my fingee's,maybe pinky. Luck for me I don't have to ever use them!
Sorry Ray,I know, weird thing to collect right? Sometimes these things kinda fall into your lap!
Toe rings/ ankle bracelets, hmm not yet but...
There are lots of thimble collector sites online. We used to collect them and selling off duplicates was really easy. Somewhere we still have a few packed away. Thanks for sharing these.
Thanks for your comments fhrjc2!
