Retro Surf Edsel Snout Shaped Mirror

This is a cool vintage mirror with an orange flecked gilt frame and out-swept edges in the corners. It’s probably 1950′s vintage and looks remarkably like the snout/grille of an Edsel. Unlike an Edsel the mirror has eyelets placed so it can be hung with the skinny end at either the top or the bottom.

As the sticker on the back shows this was made in Belgium for La Barge Mirrors of Holland, Michigan, a company that’s still reflecting on its business model.

It is approximately 20 inches wide and 43 inches long and has a few small drip marks (like mascara after crying, or watery ink) on the frame at the skinny end. Otherwise it is in excellent condition.
