I had a 2 once. Gave it to a girl. Stupid.
Pics of your ashtrays

It's kind of disappointing that your 21" ashtray has just legs, instead of swivel casters with locking brakes. Stunning nonetheless.

Two dollar bills are intended exclusively for grandparents to give to their grandchildren. Impressive, but cost only $2.

But off topic but does WLT sell a ashtray with their logo?

I requested Grandma's ashtray when she passed. It's very old.
I don't get to use it much. Don't smoke cigarettes. Can't smoke inside. Taking it outside for a cigar is a chore as the floor is easier.
Makes me smile looking at it though. Brings back memories of Dunhill smoke, a prim lady and a hidden, well stocked drinking cabinet

Nice. I can picture a group of older ladies sitting around smoking happily, cups of tea, coffee, and gossiping about the new niegbours.I requested Grandma's ashtray when she passed. It's very old.

Not mine, but anyone here have one?
The Belmet, Rollodor model, from the twenties or thirties. The bottom is heavily weighted (17 lbs.) so that it's auto self righting, rolls on wheels that act independently, ash bowl pushes down to empty, and the center shaft cylinder lid pushes up to reveal match storage. Last two features are spring loaded in some examples.
I believe these were originally made for use on trains, and the Rollodor is mentioned in the book The Thin Man. Sadly, it didn't make an appearance in any of the movies.
One of these was recently listed fairly locally on craigslist, but seller wanted many mints for it. They do come up for sale from time to time.
The manufacturer also made non rolling models.

So was at my mother's house today and remembered when they use to smoke so asked for their ash trays here is a unique one they have but not really been used.
