<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 107770, member: 44"]I tend to agree that it is not a frog. Somewhere in the distance past, 1940s, I have a fleeting memory of a cigar something like this. The wire was used to flick/rub off the ashes. The cigar would rest in the holes. I think, certainly not sure, this type of ashtray may have set in the middle of something bigger like a cigar stand. The middle of the stand had an opening that this type of ashtray fitted. I haven't had any luck finding the same. I did see a pic of a slightly similar one with the wire top, but the fool thing is no longer up on line or needed to search through a trillion pages to find it. Following is a link to pics of it. Sorry the link is huge, but that is the link google came up with when I did a reverse app image search on my iPad. It might have been called a "Vintage 1938 NIBCO Copper Ashtray."</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/search?tbs=sbi:AMhZZit72sz9KZUfatJZlKaQf-OIs81ggpVEAkdkxOphiuxvqBaVcqBUz0Zas7Rs2chPuXxeF6Jc9UCtvnMv1NYesTHhqu599xWIs6KCkpW1ySMeVL-9fN7V0ebaYummY3_1pGopbVy_1pwGQ2ZIIa8DkweUQyVbmK3cmB6sv72viGyJ-0uaGrFiqbYqHieTYX6XuVGKRrUDOS5g9oyphR34vKiv5iTYoWTbRd1Kc_1MdZdL46wBAYcct-awogagyHjN4EmHnRo9aPbQ4nGtcRQwvKe_10CDOMnarDrTXCDKib50gffZfRoAxVX1Q8X8BWa-tWXFVqSeRf64ij01rM7TUgD_13BzVS85QHDC4nG-XXqoWMBkDmTuqT1bS217n_1wIePwohMBrRLWh-B2s76X3_1wuwsChkZgSUDcHbKjHevGtab7R0APhvT3RFHq6HnKgTO0e3F1adJvBm004-MdRqaeT3vn3NeJKWRavQmz9dGYgzGqxBFJOI6KBoQZPSNDpzRCOc7-BP-7cq747ApoclZtufKudVlX9zXwxvfdKWOo7KqJSmiaVmfARj54gMDb20QTOifjcPaIUXyleYlY1dTxbxOaSvKAu6zYgZAh9H44DxGhnpU7EUwoXom8TMbOjXC-4Ujasmnj6MOHv3k84M9s5y7Cwn5gL3qs6OK5ldmxPLDIGIS_1405MD2BnLVRLZkWAimGMPbYdQRn3OdZNVRCUOiQIoYCHaL1O3yLakhzSeC_1xcx9rKzEMbPkJVKrXc2L6dk0WJ4jTw1rRmvs0Urx0VlofnIPI4wGntAQ76WS2SUGB0YApk7Jr5wzoRRhcRgGXuEBirmIqEF0MH6v6e9bCpJ769J6diOKHpQcM_1JfUJxH38XdiHIZLDdeBD6tF7ojQqRsOG4OnH3XmzBumXq_1cSt1T9XuKmS79gFKdmP9yMs3ZWFy4t6wVqfvx2Npj88w4z0tBsbwLvKlMnCypfHy7vfyaOetJXRMIUAj8cgq48wuQnDMh1L375lJCemzYgVxbeSyInfXGTpJQm25Km6KMcbCAo1Cba2nLfzBsgDQr8-i-k7Vbxvd2kNwpbp54_1NouShTcJSQ5Mg-p4CoDsaGLlvv7bG9vpiF1p9ypIoT1dtvdfn88ByxrIbnVuZbpQzv5pOCsaR48UeerG-ZuaFsFrl1FSwNDhLOsusyJuKyoXGUTowR7B48r7Y" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/search?tbs=sbi:AMhZZit72sz9KZUfatJZlKaQf-OIs81ggpVEAkdkxOphiuxvqBaVcqBUz0Zas7Rs2chPuXxeF6Jc9UCtvnMv1NYesTHhqu599xWIs6KCkpW1ySMeVL-9fN7V0ebaYummY3_1pGopbVy_1pwGQ2ZIIa8DkweUQyVbmK3cmB6sv72viGyJ-0uaGrFiqbYqHieTYX6XuVGKRrUDOS5g9oyphR34vKiv5iTYoWTbRd1Kc_1MdZdL46wBAYcct-awogagyHjN4EmHnRo9aPbQ4nGtcRQwvKe_10CDOMnarDrTXCDKib50gffZfRoAxVX1Q8X8BWa-tWXFVqSeRf64ij01rM7TUgD_13BzVS85QHDC4nG-XXqoWMBkDmTuqT1bS217n_1wIePwohMBrRLWh-B2s76X3_1wuwsChkZgSUDcHbKjHevGtab7R0APhvT3RFHq6HnKgTO0e3F1adJvBm004-MdRqaeT3vn3NeJKWRavQmz9dGYgzGqxBFJOI6KBoQZPSNDpzRCOc7-BP-7cq747ApoclZtufKudVlX9zXwxvfdKWOo7KqJSmiaVmfARj54gMDb20QTOifjcPaIUXyleYlY1dTxbxOaSvKAu6zYgZAh9H44DxGhnpU7EUwoXom8TMbOjXC-4Ujasmnj6MOHv3k84M9s5y7Cwn5gL3qs6OK5ldmxPLDIGIS_1405MD2BnLVRLZkWAimGMPbYdQRn3OdZNVRCUOiQIoYCHaL1O3yLakhzSeC_1xcx9rKzEMbPkJVKrXc2L6dk0WJ4jTw1rRmvs0Urx0VlofnIPI4wGntAQ76WS2SUGB0YApk7Jr5wzoRRhcRgGXuEBirmIqEF0MH6v6e9bCpJ769J6diOKHpQcM_1JfUJxH38XdiHIZLDdeBD6tF7ojQqRsOG4OnH3XmzBumXq_1cSt1T9XuKmS79gFKdmP9yMs3ZWFy4t6wVqfvx2Npj88w4z0tBsbwLvKlMnCypfHy7vfyaOetJXRMIUAj8cgq48wuQnDMh1L375lJCemzYgVxbeSyInfXGTpJQm25Km6KMcbCAo1Cba2nLfzBsgDQr8-i-k7Vbxvd2kNwpbp54_1NouShTcJSQ5Mg-p4CoDsaGLlvv7bG9vpiF1p9ypIoT1dtvdfn88ByxrIbnVuZbpQzv5pOCsaR48UeerG-ZuaFsFrl1FSwNDhLOsusyJuKyoXGUTowR7B48r7Y" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/search?tbs=sbi:AMhZZit72sz9KZUfatJZlKaQf-OIs81ggpVEAkdkxOphiuxvqBaVcqBUz0Zas7Rs2chPuXxeF6Jc9UCtvnMv1NYesTHhqu599xWIs6KCkpW1ySMeVL-9fN7V0ebaYummY3_1pGopbVy_1pwGQ2ZIIa8DkweUQyVbmK3cmB6sv72viGyJ-0uaGrFiqbYqHieTYX6XuVGKRrUDOS5g9oyphR34vKiv5iTYoWTbRd1Kc_1MdZdL46wBAYcct-awogagyHjN4EmHnRo9aPbQ4nGtcRQwvKe_10CDOMnarDrTXCDKib50gffZfRoAxVX1Q8X8BWa-tWXFVqSeRf64ij01rM7TUgD_13BzVS85QHDC4nG-XXqoWMBkDmTuqT1bS217n_1wIePwohMBrRLWh-B2s76X3_1wuwsChkZgSUDcHbKjHevGtab7R0APhvT3RFHq6HnKgTO0e3F1adJvBm004-MdRqaeT3vn3NeJKWRavQmz9dGYgzGqxBFJOI6KBoQZPSNDpzRCOc7-BP-7cq747ApoclZtufKudVlX9zXwxvfdKWOo7KqJSmiaVmfARj54gMDb20QTOifjcPaIUXyleYlY1dTxbxOaSvKAu6zYgZAh9H44DxGhnpU7EUwoXom8TMbOjXC-4Ujasmnj6MOHv3k84M9s5y7Cwn5gL3qs6OK5ldmxPLDIGIS_1405MD2BnLVRLZkWAimGMPbYdQRn3OdZNVRCUOiQIoYCHaL1O3yLakhzSeC_1xcx9rKzEMbPkJVKrXc2L6dk0WJ4jTw1rRmvs0Urx0VlofnIPI4wGntAQ76WS2SUGB0YApk7Jr5wzoRRhcRgGXuEBirmIqEF0MH6v6e9bCpJ769J6diOKHpQcM_1JfUJxH38XdiHIZLDdeBD6tF7ojQqRsOG4OnH3XmzBumXq_1cSt1T9XuKmS79gFKdmP9yMs3ZWFy4t6wVqfvx2Npj88w4z0tBsbwLvKlMnCypfHy7vfyaOetJXRMIUAj8cgq48wuQnDMh1L375lJCemzYgVxbeSyInfXGTpJQm25Km6KMcbCAo1Cba2nLfzBsgDQr8-i-k7Vbxvd2kNwpbp54_1NouShTcJSQ5Mg-p4CoDsaGLlvv7bG9vpiF1p9ypIoT1dtvdfn88ByxrIbnVuZbpQzv5pOCsaR48UeerG-ZuaFsFrl1FSwNDhLOsusyJuKyoXGUTowR7B48r7Y</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]27160[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
