Description: Please take the time to read through my entire item description and view all the photographs. I consistently prepare accurate and detailed descriptions and provide clear close up photographs and video when appropriate for all my listings. The aforementioned notwithstanding, note the photos and video are still the biggest and most important part of this or any description. As the old saying goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words". If you would like additional photos or have specific questions just message me and I will respond ASAP. For your consideration is this vintage 1940’s handy little steel FINGER RING CORKSCREW cork remover. This compact little finger ring corkscrew was part of my father-in-law’s estate and was in his collection of breweriana memorabilia. Since I am in the process of downsizing, I will be offering different items from that collection over time. The corkscrew is made out of twisted and curled steel (metal is magnetic) rods that weighs approximately half an ounce (.50) by itself. The corkscrew measures approximately 2-7/8” in overall length. The overall size of the finger hole measures approximately 15/16” in diameter and the actual cork screw portion measures approximately 2.75” in length. Refer to description photos #11, #12, #13 and #14 to confirm the weight and size dimensions and for more details about what I have described. Overall, the corkscrew remains in good condition and can still perform as designed if the new owner so desired to use it again as it was originally intended. That said; I believe it will make a better curio and display piece among your other breweriana collectibles. The metal has somewhat grayed with age and the tip of the screw remains pointed and sharp. As can be confirmed in the description photos, there are a few minute surface blemishes from honest age, use and handling over the past 70 + years but, in my personal opinion, none of which detract from the overall eye appeal of the vintage piece. This is a very nice example of basic and primitive technology from a bygone era in time that any breweriana collector would appreciate acquiring and adding to their memorabilia and collection display. Please look at the photos closely as they accurately depict the vintage finger ring corkscrew I describe and show exactly what you will receive if you purchase this piece. If you have any questions or concerns about the corkscrew please email me and I will respond ASAP. The corkscrew will ship from Texas zip code 77362 via USPS Ground Advantage safely secured between two pieces of protective cardboard inside a 9.0" x 7.0" x 1.0" shipping envelope weighing between approximately 4.0 and 5.0 ounces after packaging. Buyer pays true shipping cost, if you would like to estimate shipping to your home zip code you can enter the aforementioned shipping information into the USPS postal calculator program.
