Worlds Fair Greetings From the St Louis Exhibition Ship Shell Rare Estate Find

Description

Dave's Hobby Shop by W5SWL      ...    We sell the good stuff !
A very rare item. Measures about 3-3/8" long and stands about 4-1/2" high and about 1-1/2" wide from side to side. A very rare find from a estate. We believe this to be 1904, which would put it at 114 years old. Depiction of a ship made of shell and shell like materials and painted with what we believe to be gold leaf paint. Possibly a one of kind specimen from the era and very ornate and rare. We are not collectible experts and this is sold as-is as-found. You are the expert on authenticating the information provided and knowing what it is. Item will be properly packed for safe transit.

Its OK to return a item!
Our return process is much easier if you deal directly with us via the customer service email. We have been taking care of customers since 1981. If you open a return via eBay it becomes more complicated and cumbersome and we have to follow that return process whether it makes sense or not. We can save you the headache and complication if you email us instead.
Here are the general return rules. Unknown returns may be refused. Returns must be new and unused and have all parts and accessories. We do not refund shipping charges or return shipping unless we have made an error. We appreciate honesty and communication in the return process to better assist you. A restocking fee may apply on returns and outbound shipping may be deducted on free shipping items if you use the eBay return method (always best to email us instead). Thank you
Please contact us and we will be happy to assist you!
