Presented here is a very rare souvenir whiskey fight bell which was used as bar display piece. Circa 1940's. This is a wonderful whiskey advertising item. It was put out by the Jack Dempsey Co., of Dunbar, Maryland for their blended whiskey. It features a metal ring bell resting on a cardboard sign reading, HAVE YOUR NEXT ROUND WITH JACK DEMPSEY. There is a small pine wood stand with a lever which if you press rings the bell. Corca 1940's. A little soiling, but still perfectly intact and working. 11 1/2" long x 17" high x 6" wide. Excellent overall condition. Quite rare, the only example we have seen.
