A 1918
patriotic World War I, Red, White and Blue wooden Safety Cracker that makes a
loud sound when the metal handle is turned.
The back has two attached wooden boards that are raised by the metal
parts and then they crash down against a larger wooden board and makes a large
sound. The Safety Cracker states
“SAFETY CRACKER, MADE IN U.S.A.,
PATENTED JULY 16TH 1918”
Not
included the 2 inch metal handle sticking out of the side the Cracker is 5 7/8
x 2 11/16 x 7/8 inches in size. One of
the two back boards has a 1 ½ inch crack in the middle which does not diminish
the sound made by the cracker. There is
a little wear to red, white and blue colors and overall is in nice
condition. Please
see the other vintage items I have listed on eBay. Thanks for looking.
