Offered for sale are two (2) Multi-Colored, Gun Shaped, Bakelite Pencil Sharpeners.These pencil sharpeners were popular in the 1930s and 1940s because of the involvement of G-Men (Government Men – FBI Agents) who had become public heroes because of their involvement in highly publicized investigations during the Gangster Era of the 1930.
These were some of the many G-Man or G-Men toys which were produced from the 1930s through the 1950s and were very popular with children during that time.
These pencil sharpeners measure about 2 inches long, 1 1/14 inches tall and just under ½ an inch deep.
These pencil sharpeners are in good condition but, because of their age, are probably better to be viewed as collectibles, rather than being used as pencil sharpeners.
