Anyone know a company called Allite Mfg?

I have this GREAT set of old plastic (not so sure bakelite) Salt and pepper shaker in a box with instuctions with great photos. These are called, "Allite Seaoners" and are manufactured by Allite Mfg Company 5732 Duarte St. Los Angeles, CA. The photos of a woman's hand demonstrating the shakers (filling with salt, then using) shows me that these are at least from the 50's. I cannot find a thing about this company on the web. Any thoughts?

Massive Japanese Red Wood Carving Sculpture? Please help!

Hi Everyone! I'm hoping to get more information on this Japanese piece. I believe it to be some sort of wood sculpture or carving. The wood is exceptionally heavy and is red in color. I purchased it from a serviceman who said he brought it over from Japan about 15 years ago. He did not buy it new, so I'm not sure of the age? It measures roughly 16 inches across and 10 inches tall and weighs about 20 pounds. I have no idea how to describe it or what it is called so any information/research sites would be MUCH appreciated. I haven't been able to find anything close on eBay or google, but maybe haven't been using the right keywords. (Sorry about the dust, I haven't had a chance to clean it and the guy I bought it from was using it as a doorstop.) Thanks in advance for your time and expertise! Supertreasures

Looks like a grapefruit spoon to me, but it's not, so what is it?

Something for sectioning grapefruit was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw these, but really believe they are something for the workshop, but I have no idea. They have wood handles and metal spoon-shaped pointy ends. Both have holes in the handle, but only one has a string. One is smaller and a little sharper around the edge than the other, though neither is knife sharp. Any ideas?

Even though there's an indication of the cards (common, uncommon, rare, and premium) in the box I don't know for sure it's correct and I have no idea how to check, nor do I have the time to carefully sift through 3,000 or so cards.

Original drawings of Tintin

I have some original drawings of Tintin (The Adventures of Tintin is a series of comic strips created by Belgian artist Hergé, the pen name of Georges Remi), which are in perfect condition. Could anyone tell me, how to estimate the market price? I don't know if ebay is a good place to sell the drawings as these are collector's items. I would only consider to list if it could be sold in a good price. Could anyone give me some opinion?

What kind of pipe is this

My husband inherited this old pipe from an Aunt. He told me it was time someone else owned it so I will list it on eBay but I have no ideal what it is or how to describe it. It looks illegal to me but I know his Aunt would not have had it, if this were true. Any help is appreciated. vel

Collectible Obama Magazine Covers

I have quite a few Newsweek and Time magazines with Obama on the cover. 9 of the 12 have the mailing label on them. Are they still collectible with the label, can I black out the label or should I cut out the label? I would prefer not to cut the label. Your suggestions, please. Thanks.!

SPECIAL BUTTONS - WHERE ARE BUTTON COLLECTRS

Hi - Wonder if someone could point me in the right direction. I've got a button necklace that I'm trying to identify. I can't figure out what discussion group buttons collectors would be on. I'm including a photo here in case someone recognizes it. I have seen a picture of a bracelet just like my necklace and it identified it as Czech catalin. It has brass balls and is on a brass chain. But I seem the button seams and I didn't think catalin looked like this. So, couple questions. 1. any idea what this is made of and how old? 2. where do the button collectors hang out. Thanks a bunch p

What are these Antique Buttons?

Hi I am wondering what you would call these buttons. They are glass and some sort of metal on top? One of them has color, and I don't really understand if that means they were all colored at one time? I don't expect details from any of you as I know button collectors probably know all of this.. However, mostly I am wondering this: What do you call buttons that are rounded like this- like oval football shapes? I know they have shanks, but I don't know what to call this form of button. I've never seen these globular ones before. THANKS!!!!!!!!!

Shot Glass ~ Libbey glass

Good evening experts. Can anyone tell me what these are? Shot glasses, jiggers etc. The bases seem to be chrome or stainless. Glasses are marked with a script L for Libbey with a number on the side. The bases are shaped like bullet casinings and have a rubber or neoprine insert to keep the glass from falling out. Looking for a proper way to list them with an approximate age. Any help appreciated. Adrienne
