Gayware. Truly. It’s a thing. Or was. And of course still is.
Made in Sydney by Gay Plastics from 1950-1965.
The harlequin [multicoloured] set of kitchen canisters are the most sought after and can pull big money. Sometimes selling on Ebay for $200-300.
This is my collection of mixed up wannabes. Picked up in various places at different times, finally coming together after a yard sale score on Saturday.
Only the blue one is true Gayware. The rest are old fakers [unbranded vintage knock offs, check their bottoms]. Though they look pretty real. And pretty damn good. Except for the F lid. It’s a bit cracked up. Aren’t we all…
