PLACE REPRESENTED: New York City, New York , USA

ITEM: Small dish or ashtray

NOTES: A striking aluminium stamped small dish or ashtray commemorating New York City and its Empire State Building. Unsure of the age, but it has the Empire State Building as the tallest building, which it was from 1931 to 1971. The pressed aluminium cries out mass produced “art deco”. It is certainly a souvenir that wont break or deteriorate quickly.
