#MSH056 - Group of 2 Mechanical Mini Ash Tray/Hippie Stash Boxes in Original Boxes - Kissing Toads

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image (the illustrated box and device are both pictured). You get 2 for $5 (that's $2.50 each). These are a real piece of hippie history. Vintage colorful 2 3/8" tall box. The ashtray/stash box , and the device inside says "Before you Meet the Handsome Prince" "You Have to Kiss a Lot of Toads". This was from back in the day of free love. It pictures a large toad. The device inside has a spring loaded cigarette/joint holder that pops out when you open it. It is a tin box that you could use as an ash tray or for joint storage. "Made in Hong Kong". These were sold as novelties and in head shops all over the country in the late 1960s into the early 1970s when stash boxes were all the rage. We found these at an old novelty distributorship in northern Ohio. Excellent unused condition. There were nine different variations (Cigarettes, Cars, Novelty) that we will be offering in this and future catalogs. They would make a really interesting collection.

#BEADS0930 - Strand of 26+ Large Cherry Brand Glass 14mm Alabaster Dimpled Beads

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. You get 26 or so large beads for $4.42 (17¢ each). Vintage temporary strand of fancy Cherry Brand Japanese beads. They are large heavy 14mm diameter dimpled alabaster glass beads. These are from broken temporary strands and there will be between 26 and 30 in perfect condition in each bag. They were made by hand using old techniques. The crude shapes really enhance the look. These are 1940s Cherry Brand (company only existed from 1946 - 1951). As you may know, Cherry Brand was considered the highest quality Japanese bead maker. This is a very fresh find we made from a dealer in New York who originally purchased them in the 1940s. These are very hard to find, very nice, and have never seen the light of day. Click on the image to see a larger picture with more detail.

#BEADS0170 - Group of 4 Large Heavy Glass 22mm Black and White Tibetan Dzi Blessings Beads

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. You will get 4 for $1 (that's 25¢/bead). Vintage very heavy thick glass 22mm long black and white Dzi five eye beads. The five eye design represented blessings from the five Tibetan Wealth Gods, and were believed to provide the holder with prosperity and affluence. These are the late 1960s hippie era. They were sold in the late 60s from a bead store near the Haight Ashbury area. So, they are at least that old, and I suspect older. The oldest Dzi beads were made of agate. These are glass. They are old handmade lampwork beads. The hippie phenomena dominated the area and the demand for beads was huge. These are the leftovers from that era that were relegated to storage as the fad faded. They are in nice unused condition.

They are identical otherwise. 2 Different The Cult OTTO cloth backstage passes from the 2009 "Love Live" Tour. Excellent unused condition.

The Cult intentionally stays out of the mainstream, but has a huge "Cult" following. They have a very loyal group of followers who fill large stadiums wherever they go. In spite of their avoidance of mainstream, they have had a number of songs that have charted in the top 100 internationally. "Love" charted at #4 in the UK. After several breakups and reunions, they again continue to play on and record new music.
