Go Jo Products USA - Is anyone familiar with them?

I picked up a cute pair of metal bookends in the shape of a thimble. The mark inside and the tag on the bottom says Go Jo Products USA. The information card is still with it and says it is cold cast bronze. They are about 6 inches tall and the set weighs 5.11 pounds. Is anyone familiar with this company, how old it is, when they were producing this item? Any guess as to their value? Thank you for any help you can give me.

 

Yes it is a cleaner mechanics or anyone who gets gookie greasy hands it has a pumice like texture & cleans hands well. I use it if I am doing any baking/cooking with oils in r especially any type of chocolate & it removes smells from skin well. A tiny bit goes a very long way for me because I wear gloves.

with an edition of 5000....... value will be low to anyone but a needle worker...

 

Ditto-It is indeed GOJO.

PS-Who's got fingers big enough for that thimble ?

 

different font...different logo......
I'm not buying it's the same company...

 

Anything else on the card?

 

And, most importantly, different category. Me either.

Isnt that an embroidery company? Which makes more sense than GoJo, which many know as a commercial hand cleaner? ‍♀️

 

Obviously it is not from the hand cleaner brand. I believe it may be part of the artist's name "Go Jo".

 

@Christine S, in the future, it would be helpful if you included all the information you had about an item in your initial post. That would help us help you more efficiently. To my eye, these were commercially produced, not by an artist. (The edition number of 5,000 supports this.) The code appears to indicate year of manufacture as 1987 which would be right for both the design of the sticker and tag as well as the U.S.A. manufacture.

Here is a similar to be found on the internet. Please note this is an asking price, not a sold price.

Christine S-What a stunning reveal,like the ending of the 'Sixth Sense' !

 

1987 seconded. I have to admit that my first reaction to Gojo was the orange jug of gunk cleaner too.
