1929 1930 1931 1932 1928 Studebaker NOS Rear Ashtray Model A Ford Rockne Vintage
Item History & Price
Up for sale is a rear ashtray. The bezel surround has a striking art deco design. The fabric cover is damaged, so this will have to be replaced.
-Stamped on the back of the ash tray is: GRAND RAPIDS METALCRAFT CORPORATION GRAND RAPIDS MICH. U.S.A.-The bezel surround measures approximately 4 5/16" X 3" in diameter. The door measures approximately 3" X 2 3/16".
Application: Based on my research this should fit Studebaker early 1930s. A similar design was also use...d in Ford Model A400 and Deluxe Phaeton. Auburn also used a similar design. Please do your own research.
Condition: This is in good condition for the age. It has never been used, but has some shelf wear from age.
-The outer decorative trim surface is nice and smooth. There are a few small spots of light surface finish loss revealing the brass underneath. I don't see any bends or cracks.
-The door opens and closes nicely. The fabric cover has damage so will need to be replaced. The metal underneath the fabric as well as the outer ring surrounding the door shows some rust, but there is no weakness in the metal. The inside of the ash tray looks very good. The METALCRAFT stamp on the back is crisp.
