Nipper Ashtray in Japan

Post by Lah Ca »

The cost of 3,000 Yen (including taxes) is about $20.69 USD at today's exchange rate. Shipping will be a little expensive.

It is not all that vintage; the katakana script reads, Victor Stereo (or bi ku ta tsu te ri o).

Thank you. It has been almost 40 years since I lived in Japan and longer since I studied the language.

Yes. He has been out in the mud or worse. Or there has been a botched glue job.

This one, now sold, was 5,000 Yen.
