Fabulous turn-of-the century porcelain syrup dispenser was used in candy stores, soda fountains and drugstores to pump out the syrup for the soda jerk to prepare your favorite brand of soda. Bulbous beauty was the only "baseball" one ever created. Extremely rare (less than ten examples are known to exist), this is one of the most desired syrup dispensers (strong col-lectibles unto themselves) of all. In the shape of a giant baseball, it stands a majestic 14" tall and a full 9" across. The laces of the baseball are figural, raised and prominent. Front features a dynamic bat in decorated wood grain and type set in most daz-zling of styles. Awesome graphics with original metal pump and in working condition for behind the bar. Minor fading to front but overall still VG-EX with no chips or cracks. One of the true classics of baseball collecting, this is only the second one we have offered in thirty years.
