Antique candy display case

By early cuyler, 8 October, 2009

Description

Old style display case for candy. Reminds me of something you would see on the counter of an old general store. I have no attachment to it personally so I'm wondering a ball park figure of what someone might be willing to pay for it as I could really use some extra money right now.

Re: Antique candy display case

Display cabinets seldom sell in the Antique market except to other dealers ;~). Most are still used for their original purpose as display cabinets, but to contain and display a Dealers "Smalls" such as silverware, dinky toys, watches and jewelry rather than Candy. As a display piece these sell at auction in the $200.00- $400.00 range.
