 Lets Talk About Squirt Gun Canes (9223)
The squirt gun pictured here is probably the most valuable squirt gun cane in the world, yet it is made from pot metal and was very inexpensive when it was new in the 1880's. Over the years I have seen this one at auction consistantly go between $3500 and $4500, not only because of the erotic feature of Atlas holding a barechested woman on his back, but for a number of other reasons. The most common squirt gun, is probably the chinaman with the cuecue. By lifting up the cuecue water comes from his mouth, yet it still brings over $1500, also made from pot metal Interestingly I have never had one, but I have sold a lot of other squirtguns, one of the better sellers of gadget canes. The ones you see that will follow are those that I have kept, those I couldn't part with, for various reasons. I thought about ranking them by rarity, but in the end I couldn't do that, it was too complicated, because they each had features that would make them better than features of another. Another reason I couldn't rate them is, I have never seen some sold, so how would I know how others would rate their desireability or rarity unless they were sold. If you want to learn about squirt guns, read about all those that follow, as they all tell a part of the very interesting story of squirt guns.
