Votes for Women” Rolling Pin

SOLD ON NOV 17, 2010 FOR: $6,871.25

Fantastic “Votes for Women” Rolling Pin. This novelty item may reasonably be considered a Holy Grail for women’s suffrage collectors. We are aware of only one other example in the hobby and none have previously been offered at auction. It is made out of wood, has one moveable handle, and an attached paper label that reads: “We have had the BIG STICK, Now let’s have the BIG ROLLING PIN; Roll out the opposition ROLL IN VOTES FOR WOMEN” It was made by Sleazby Brothers of Detroit and is in excellent condition.
