WOW!! WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SAW ONE OF THESE? THIS IS A REAL VINTAGE MAGNUM CHAMPAGNE VASQUE FROM PIPER HEIDSIECK. THIS IS THEIR 'MARILYN' BUCKET, SO NAMED BECAUSE PIPER HEIDSIECK WAS MARILIN MONROES FAVOURITE CHAMPAGNE. HER NAME 'MARILYN' IS ENGRAVED ON THE FRONT OF THE BUCKET ABOVE CHAMPAGNE PIPER HEIDSIECK REIMS AND ON THE REVERSE SIDE WE HAVE MARILYNS ADDRESS 444 FIRST AVENUE NY NY APT 13E. THIS IS SO DESIRABLE FOR NOT ONLY CHAMPAGNE DRINKERS BUT THE COLLECTORS OF MARILYN MEMORABILIA. THIS HAS GOT TO BE A GREAT TALKING POINT AT YOUR NEXT DINNER PARTY.THE COOLER HAS BEEN USED AND AS YOU WOULD EXPECT THERE ARE SOME SURFACE MARKS SO PLEASE SUPERSIZE ALL THE PICS TO GET A CLEAR INDICATION OF CONDITION AS THESE FORM THE BASIS OF THE DESCRIPTION.THERE ARE NO DENTS IN THE BUCKET. I HAVE TO SAY I THINK ITS A SIMPLY GREAT PIECE OF MARILYN MONROE RETRO.
IT IS 9 1/4" TALL AND HAS A TOP DIAMETER OF 10".
THERE IS A VERY ORNATE VINE DESIGNED HANDLE ON EITHER SIDE THAT ADD AN ADDITIONAL 1 " EACH TO THE COMBINED WIDTH.A GREAT BUCKET FROM A GREAT ERA--DON'T MISS IT.
