VINTAGE COOL 1950s SWIRL SIPPERS w/ORIG BOX and INSTRUCTIONS LOL

Description

Another one of those "oh I have GOT to have these for my kitchen" items! (I really didn't want to give these up because these swirl sippers are just too cool.
Up for auction (reluctantly) are 1950s Swirl Sippers, never used, in original box (shows some wear and a few strains but all sides are intact as is the bottom part of the box) with instructions (OMG the instructions are just too damned funny!) There are eight swirl sippers in the box just waiting for you to buy them and use them in your home bar because what else is there to do during a pandemic but make some fancy drink and stir it with a Swirl Sipper???
These gizmos are made of plastic. The "straw" part is clear plastic and the ends come in different colors: Red, orange, clear (which is really not a color LOL), blue, green, yellow, pink & purple.
But it's the INSTRUCTIONS that just SLAY me OMG LMAO. Ready? (the punctuation is a bit wonky)
HOW TO USE SIPPERS
"Rotate sipper between thumb and forefinger, action of blades at base of straw mix drink thoroughly with almost no effort. Drinks filled with cracked ice and fruit present no problem or spilling over the sides of the glass.
(sorry, I am CRYING LAUGHING while writing this)
"Wonderful for ice tea, flavored milk drinks for youngsters or tall drinks."
You know those those easy listening radio hosts from way back decades who had those smooth as sea glass voices? I can almost hear that voice reading these instructions out loud. I lost it at the "almost no effort."
Apparently there was a serious competition between plain ol' boring SPOONS and SWIRL SIPPERS! Notwithstanding they are plastic and who knows how many kids (or hammered adults) ingested broken pieces of swirl sippers because they swirled too hard.
Too freaking funny!
Shipping is free as always.
