ca. 1940sWard\'s Lime Crush ceramic molded lime soda syrup dispenserup for offer.NO PUMP. The item is in good to fair condition andwas owned by afamily friend who had a replica soda fountain in their basement.I believe it was purchased in the 1980\'s at a local antique market.
Theitem is a lovely replica of a lime seated on a base of paintedflowers. Vibrant bright green, white, blue and orangeare the prominent painted on colors. The item could use a good cleaning that I am reluctant to perform due to a lack of proper knowledge of cleaning techniques of a vintage item.
Please read carefully: item is in good to fair condition, it does have a one quarter inch chip at the top near the mouth opening and noticeable hairline fracture that runs from mouth down the side to the base. It doesn\'t appear to have been repaired, there is no evidence of gluing or other repair and it feels solid when held. The chip can be made out in a photo above, please contact me with any questions you have about the condition of this item.
