Product Details

Vintage ceramic ashtray from 1958 features the beloved comic strip character Brother Juniper, created by Fred McCarthy. This collectible piece, produced by The Shafford Co., showcases a 3D monk figurine standing at the corner of a square tray, which is decorated with a humorous golfing scene and the caption "Hand me my prayerbook!". The tray is finished in a glossy white glaze with black line art and a hand-painted figurine. A charming piece of mid-century tobacciana and religious-themed humor, it retains its original foil Japan sticker on the underside alongside the maker's marks.
