<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td><em> </em></td></tr><tr> <td width="100%"> Charles Dickens was disgusted by the
American habit of spitting. He wrote about a
train journey that saliva out of the railway car
windows - flew so perpetually and
incessantly... that it looked as though they
were ripping open feather-beds inside and
letting the wind dispose of the feathers.
<p>For those inclined to be neater, there was
the cuspidor. This antique vessel is pottery in high Victorian
style, glazed glossy cobalt blue.
<p>If you don't chew, it will make a great
planter.
<p>7-1/2 inch diameter, 5 inch high.
<p>Very Good condition. No chips, cracks or
other damage. <p>No manufacturer marks.

pottery as well as more fine antiques. </td></tr><tr> <td> </td></tr><tr> <td>Reference #: 549cuspAW</td></tr><tr><td>Condition:Very Good</td></tr><tr><td>Year:Late 19th C</td></tr><tr><td>Height:5</td></tr><tr><td>Width:7.5</td></tr><tr><td>Title:Spittoon COBALT Blue Pottery ANTIQUE</td></tr><tr><td>Style:Victorian</td></tr><tr><td>Location:Buffalo, NY</td></tr></table>
