[edit] Summary

This Googie (Populuxe) example circa 1950 demonstrates that historically, ashtrays have often been designed to serve more than their utilitarian purpose to rise to the level of objects of decorative art. This ashtray was designed by the industrial designer Maurice Ascalon and manufactured by the Pal-Bell Company.
