Vintage Halloween German JOL-faced hat box candy container

eBay has been so full of dreck that it is gratifying to see a true quality item listed and sold. This German hat box candy container is one of the more common items from what is a surprisingly large set of such items. (Turn to pages 58-60 to see other items from the set - some of which you won’t see elsewhere.) The price realized was strong, especially when you must swim against the current of crap that eBay has foisted upon the collecting community by consolidating all Halloween items into a one-size-fits-all category. One seller actually listed ~300 lots of masks that I was frustrated with having to wade through.
