Rare Antique Holland Brass Works No. 203 Crucifix Stand – Complete Travel Set with Original Case & Rare Green Bakelite
Up for sale is an exceptionally rare, complete piece of American history: an original Holland Brass Works No. 203 Traveling Funeral/Altar Crucifix Stand.
This specific set is a collector\'s dream because it features the incredibly scarce early green Bakelite accent on the lower standard, rather than the more common orange or yellow variants. It is also completely intact with its incredibly rare, original fitted carrying case.
Condition Details:
Overall Condition: Very Good antique condition. The brass retains a beautiful, authentic patina with minimal wear.
Bakelite: The green Bakelite insert is intact, bright, and free of major cracks or chips.
Electrics: Includes the original electric candle holders and the original vintage power cord. (Note: As with all vintage electronics, it is sold as-is and re-wiring is recommended for regular use).
Carrying Case: Includes the original travel case used by traveling clergy. The case shows normal exterior wear from age but remains structurally sound and secures the stand perfectly.
