Good to see you back Bill, I don't know what it is but at first glance a menu holder sprang to mind,doubt if its an ashtray as there is no grooves for the cigarettes,nice piece.

Looks like a cigar holder/ashtray.
As it is not "Totally Politically Correct" to use it as a Cigar holder anymore, my first thought would be a Business Card holder on a Desk!
Hi Bill, you might need to send those pictures to Antiques Roadshow : )
Not sure of the size of you jigger . Does a match box happen to fit pretty sure that is what its for. Little tab in the bottom to hod it open a bit.
That would be my guess to wimmera farmer.Match box held ajar and striker pads accessible on the sides.
There was a lot of stuff around like that when I was a kid.
how we have changed....
Looks like a napkin holder to me????
If all else fails look it up on google , cheers
[quote="Bill Glenn"]This was given to me because it has a caterpillar machine on it. Its largest dimension is 5 inches. I have no idea what it is. Looks like a napkin holder or an ashtray. It has a stainless steel triangular clip between the uprights. Does anyone have an idea what it is?!?!

Bill, I have a 60 watch fob, and the shipping documents that came with a 60 my grandfather bought new and I would be interested in purchasing your piece of memorabilia to go with what I have if you are of a mind to sell. RT
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
