Available for sale is a stunning trio of after hours pieces made by Rocco Commisso during his employment at Victor Insulator Manufacturing Company, ca. 1910-1920. These are being sold as a set and will not be separated. A MUST for the Victor collector.

Two pieces (the floral pattered ashtray and base of the bowl) are marked with Rocco's signature while the larger cobalt blue ashtray is unmarked. All three pieces are VNM.

This group is sold with supporting genealogical resources and census data tying Rocco to Victor, NY and Locke Insulator Manufacturing Company and we're passed down in the Commisso family. The relative I purchased these from was interviewed by Elton Gish for his biography of Fred Locke.

Asking price reduced to $650 plus shipping and insurance to the US. Free delivery to the Yankee Pole Cat show on 4/16.

Prefer personal checks from those I've dealt with in the past or cash in hand. Partial trades considered for insulators or bottles.
