Vintage NABOB Glass Salt & Pepper Shakers – Black Bakelite-Style Tops – 4.5"

A distinctive pair of vintage NABOB advertising salt and pepper shakers, made from clear moulded glass with tall black bullet-shaped shaker tops.

Each glass body is embossed “NABOB” across the front along with a circular emblem near the base. The pair has a strong early-to-mid-century kitchen look and would be a great addition to a collection of Canadian advertising, grocery-store memorabilia, vintage kitchenware or NABOB collectibles.

The tapered black tops give these a much more unusual appearance than typical glass table shakers.
