Old Ashtray


Here is an ashtray from the Copacabana at 10 E. 60th. St., NYC. I am speculating that it is circa 1945-1955, I don't know. I have Googled the address and the name and cannot get any results.

I bought it at an estate sale. The dear departed lady was 97 when she left us, and she and her husband were working people who were smart with their money, and had travelled the world widely. No doubt they visited this club on one of their trips to NYC. They probably had a drink and a dance there. God bless them both.

I don't smoke so it's easy to keep clean.
