Vtg Antique Cracker Jack 106 CHARM CHAIN NECKLACE Loaded Estate Metal Celuloid +
LOADED CRACKER JACK 106 CHARMS NECKLACE. This listing features a Q&A joke: What do you call something that's tasty even though it was eaten by other people decades ago? A collection of Cracker Jack charms on an original Craker Box chain!
This is definitely one of a kind with some very scarce charms, thanks to my grandmother and father. The beige celluloid link chain necklace measures 31 inches long with a safety hook clasp. The charms vary in size and are attached to the chain links with metal jump rings.
There are 106 charms on the chain that are mostly different with some duplicates (especially Scottie dogs). They are various materials like celluloid/polystyrene, and metal that have paper decoration and are hand painted and/or hand assembled. Along with the Popeye, monkeys, angels, fish, buffalo, Tiki face, 8 ball, seals balancing balls, cigarette packs, dwarf, camels pistols, records, penguin, native American Indians, and metal charms is a Bible with a magnifier end, and a stone? Pig that stands out to my uneducated eye. There are an additional 5 charms on the side that have broken or have lost/detached loops. I mention this only because 2 charms (a chicken and a jockey on horseback) just came loose from their jump rings so I've added them to the packet of loose charms. Their loops are still intact so they just need to be reattached (see last photos).This terrific necklace is in great condition and weighs 26 grams of pure fun. Please zoom in on all the photos to spot the goodies, count the Scotties, or just smile. It's a reminder of how magical childhood was with or without "a prize in every box".
