RARE Vintage Halloween Diecut Glow in the Dark Smoking Skeleton Jitterbug Jones

This example of Jitterbug Jones sold for $525. The back easel is missing, but otherwise it displays well. Some unknown manufacturer produced at least two designs with a glow-in-the-dark feature during the 1930s. Both had attached placards, which today are often missing. (The other design shows a witch falling into a flaming cauldron. It is rare enough that I’ve never been able to acquire one.)
