ITEM DESCRIPTION:

Manufactured from the mid 1930s through the early 1950s, this clean Clover Brand 2 blade pocket knife has mother of pearl style celluloid handles inscribed in red The Coca Cola Bottling Co. on one side and Delicious and Refreshing on the other as well as a loop on one end so it can be attached to a key chain. The pocket knife measures 3 1/8 inches long and is in excellent condition with some light pitting on the blades, which have not been sharpened, and some pocket wear on the red lettering. This and other Coca Cola pieces are from the Thom Thompson Estate. Mr. Thompson collected for over 50 years and was a Coke Bottler himself. He received a Special Thanks in Allan Petretti's Coca Cola Price Guide as follows: Thom has always been my number one supporter. Ever since the first edition, he has unselfishly offered his knowledge and collection to help make this book better. Thom and Frances are among the countries top collectors. This book wouldn't be what it is today without their help. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to add a piece with such history to your collection.16668-71TP
