Original Scarce 1920s Black Boy on a JOL Halloween Candy Container Germany NM

There were at least six containers comprising this set of characters emerging from a JOL. (I have all of them in my collection.) In addition to this very desirable boy, others in the set include a sailor, a bellhop, a JOL-headed boy, a straw hat-wearing JOL teen and a schoolboy. The latter one has a movable head. I have been on a long quest to find others. The seller of this candy container is as honest as the summer days are long. I am proud to have him on my site's list of those with whom I like to ​do business. 

04/24 Update: I am glad to see this cute candy container brought nearly $400.00. ​
