    Mostly ceramic, but there's a metal ashtray with an old west motif. This was a popular collectible in the 1970s, but like most other once sought after items, the interest has fallen off.

    Remember back when an "Occupied Japan" mark could increase an item 5-10 fold? As stated, interest has fallen off.

    When I run into the mark nowadays I always get a little :woot: jolt, then instantly remember that values are not what they once were...

    Not surprised the market for these has disappeared.

    Yup! I wouldn't mind that in the least. Western Germany/US Zone Germany either.
