Bar Mart 1955 continued

Wirtz, Virginia - Our corkscrew shoppers continue their corkscrew shopping adventure in the 1955 Bar Mart catalog.



Bar Mart offered the early patent of Joseph Amigone which did not include the corkscrew. Amigone added the corkscrew to his tool in 1967. See the October 25 issue for more information.

Another 1955 offering was the Ubangi Bottle Opener without a corkscrew. We did not find the example with corkscrew attached to the hair.
