Vintage *Allied TV Service* Glass Ashtray
(aka: The “Rabbit Ears Revival” Burner)
Back when “streaming” meant adjusting the antenna just right, this little gem was holding court on a countertop somewhere between a soldering iron and a cup of bad coffee.
This vintage Allied T.V. Service ashtray is crisp, clear glass with bold red graphics that feel straight out of the mid-century playbook—clean lines, confident typography, and a phone number you can practically hear someone dialing on a rotary.
“NE 4-5427… For Fast Service.”
You just know they meant it.
Condition? Beautiful. The glass is clean and bright, no chips or cracks, and that red print still pops like it hasn’t missed a beat since black-and-white TV ruled the living room.
I could see my pop pop's filterless Pall Mall wedged in a notch, but now? Reborn as a cool little incense cone burner - function meets nostalgia in the best way.
