No. That is not the official name, just my description. The first pictured one is 8" tall with a screw top. The top unscrews from the top portion and will screw into the bottom portion.
The second one is a little bigger. Mayron is 5'4", so it is about 3'6". What is your take on these cardboard tubes? Their history or their future? Like em? I am one to like things more in bulk, so, I'm on the lookout for more.
Happy Friday!

what an unusual thing to collect. if i see any in ireland i'll tell you
ReplyDeleteVery cool. Can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteWell, you know, where I work, we use them to keep maps in good order...I'm sure the huge one isn't for that though...lol
ReplyDeleteCool, Mindy. Hope you find more.
ReplyDeleteI like them!

Oh the tubes have so many possibilities. Think about a treasure container wrapped in old french paper - the big one would make a great stand to diaplay something fantastic on it. I love stuff in bulk-keep collecting!
ReplyDeleteInteresting collection, they would be nice to display yard tools. You could weight the bottom and stand old flags on poles too. Sandi
ReplyDeleteI do like em Mindy and could see a bunch of the smaller ones grouped together and tied with jute, maybe with fake flowers (good ones, not tacky ones) sticking out.
ReplyDeleteWould you be offended if I thought this strange, and lovely in its own way?
ReplyDeleteAnything grouped together, especially if they have contrasting colours works for me. What the heck were they though?
ReplyDeleteI have a small one, myself and trying to find out information. I know that it is roughly from the early 1920s based on the stamps that are on it. My was used to send someone something at Cornell University long ago!
