I am still convinced that a good, simple, homemade cookie is far preferable to all the store-bought cookies one can find. James Beard

{HISTORY}

Made by the Novelty Manufacturing Company located in Lancaster, PA, this set of old-fashioned tin cookie cutters dates to the 1950's and comes packaged in its original box.  The cutters include various shapes intended for cookies, canapes, cheese and craft projects providing year-round fun and opportunity in the kitchen. Cookie cutters themselves have been around since the 1400s, but it was the Pennsylvania Dutch you brought them to America in the 1600's. The Novelty Manufacturing Company, founded in 1922, is located in the heart of Amish country surrounded by Pennsylvania Dutch culture, enabling them to share authentic food customs and culture with the rest of the country.  These old fashioned box sets were made in the 1950s and contain a variety of different shapes and themes, making them fun collectibles today.

{SPECIAL FEATURES}

- Includes the following shapes: pine tree, shamrock, hatchet (ax), turkey, dog, star, Santa Claus, fish, reindeer, angel, and rabbit

- Original box

- Contains 11 cookie cutters 

{CONDITION}

Both the box and the cookie cutters are in lovely vintage condition. The cutters are very clean. Three shapes contain a speck of rust around the top rim (not the side that presses into the cookie dough). The box has a little bit of chipping on the edges but is in great shape overall and securely and snugly fits all the cookie cutter inside.

Originally this box held 12 cookie cutters, but the heart shape is missing from the set. 

{SIZE}

Box measures 8" inches (length) x 6" inches (width) x 1" inch (depth). Cookie cutters are .5" inches (height) by various lengths and widths. The largest cookie cutter (the pine tree) measures 3.5" inches (length) x 2" inches (width). The smallest cookie cutter (shamrock) measures 1.5" inches (width) x 2" inches (length). 

{WHY THEY ARE FANTASTIC}

You can never go wrong with a classic, or a cookie, that celebrates various holidays throughout the year. From summer to winter, st pat's day to Christmas these guys have you covered. And then there's a little bit extra with the hatchet/ax shape... perhaps meant for all you lumberjacks out there!
