Vintage 1930s Demley Old Snifter Wine Corkscrew Brass Figural Bottle Opener

Description: Up for bid is an original vintage pre-owned 1930s Demley Old Snifter Wine Corkscrew Brass Figural Bottle Opener. Found at a family estate sale. Measures about 6 3/4" by 2" by 1.5". An “Old Snifter” bottle opener (c. 1930) marked “Demley.” The brass bottle opener is in the form of a tall lean figure wearing a frock coat and black top hat, the bottle opener is formed by the figure’s nose and ascot, the corkscrew (missing) folds out from the figure’s coat. Raised lettering on the base reads “OLD SNIFTER” and on the reverse it is imprinted “Demley” in an oval. The character of “Old Snifter” takes inspiration from “Mr. Dry”, Rollin Kirby’s cartoon personifying Prohibition. A great piece with nice detail used mostly as a display in a China cabinet. Some general wear from use and storage. Minor corrosion and age spots. Still has its old felt on the bottom. A great piece for any collector. Please see pictures for more condition details or e-mail with any questions. Thank you for looking. Happy bidding!!! Items condition: Please take a moment to enlarge & view all the detailed photos, as they are the true description for the condition of this item and override any written description above. I'm selling mostly used items purchased at Estate Sales. I try to describe the best I can but the photos capture what may have been missed in the written description. I try to describe everything to the best of my knowledge but very few things I sell are Brand New and it will be stated in the listing if they are new. If it looks like a stain, nick, or fading in the photographs then it probably is, but I believe the condition of these items is part of their charm. Payment: Prompt payment following the close of the auction is appreciated. Please note that an unpaid item case will automatically be opened by eBay after 4 days (unless other payment arrangements are made). If any problems are encountered in making payment, please contact me. I am always happy to work with my customers. Shipping: Shipping is offered within the continental USA. Preferred shipping carriers include USPS, UPS and FedEx. Shipping price includes shipping and handling. If you use a PO Box number, please contact me before bidding or purchase. Please do not buy this if you do not have a shipping address in the USA. Items will ship within 1-2 business days (often the next day) after receipt of payment. All items will be carefully packaged to avoid damage in transit. I will offer combined shipping discounts on auction items. If purchasing multiple auction items, please allow time for me to send an invoice with the correct calculated shipping before making payment. Return Policy: Returns are accepted if notified promptly after receipt of the item and the item is not being sold as is. The item must be returned in its original condition within 30 days (i.e., unopened, tags attached, etc.). The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs, except in the case of damaged or defective items.
