Nice surprise this morning [View all]

My husband and I collected lighters and tobacciana. Years ago, we bought a silver-toned flower petal ashtray. One of our kids admired it, so we gave it to her. Later, we got another flower petal ashtray, but gold tone and still have it. I saw a story this morning about this item, and just for fun, checked sold prices on eBay. Wow! Up to $200! Nice to know.
I offered the one we have to our other kid, not sure if she'll take it.
