Long John Silver toby Description: This excellent Long
John Silver toby was made by Shorter and Son circa 1950 (before being
bought by Crown Devon) and was
designed by Betty Silvester. You just gotta love the skeleton
handlle. Full markings include stamped (illegible) Staffordshire
Hand Painted Shorter & Son Ltd. England. Impressed is Long
John Silver plus Shorter England. Silvestri's name is impressed
on the back along the bottom. It's an excellent, hard to find
piece.Condition: excellent with no damage and no repairs. Of course, all our sales are fully guaranteed. Dimensions: The toby stands about 9 7/8" tall, about 5 1/2" wide, and about 5 1/2" deep. Price:
$175 plus shipping and insurance.
Shipping: $12.50 for Priority Mail within the US. International shipping rates by request. To buy an item (or more), just e-mail us, or you can call us at 812-467-0191. It works best if you include the "item" code to let us know which item or items you're interested in. The code is at the beginning of each listing and is usually two letters followed by a number. We'll confirm that the item is still available, make sure we agree on the total, and answer any questions you wish to throw our way. Checks or money orders should be made "Forrest OR Virginia Poston". We also take Paypal (including credit card payments). We try to ship in one or two days after payment arrives, and we're generous with the bubblewrap and styrofoam peanuts. If there's something you'd
like us to find for you, let us know. We're just itching to please you,
or maybe that was poison ivy we got into. Remember
that all proceeds go to support good causes: my spouse, our cats (see
the "staff"
here), our creditors, my auction addiction, and the plumbing project
that never ends.

We try not to be overly picky about the details. If we can
put it in the bank and pay some bills without any undo fuss, then we'll
probably take it. We're quite happy to take checks and money orders, and we're signed
up
with Paypal, which is the
easiest route if you want to pay by credit card. If you have
some other method in mind, get in touch, and we'll see what we can work
out. Monopoly money, anything you may have printed in the
basement, and chickens are right out.
