Original U.S. WWII “Remember Pearl Harbor” Glass Paperweight by Newton Mfg. Co.

Original Item. Only One Available. The attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 ignited not only anger towards the enemy, it also sparked a wildfire of patriotism in every American in all corners of the country. As the war effort was kicked into overdrive, Americans did everything they could to remind each other why they were fighting and what could be lost. A prime example of these reminders is this brooch you are looking at here. It is very patriotic in nature and design, with the slogan “Remember Pearl Harbor” with a pearl instead of the word “Pearl”. In the early years of WWII how could you not remember Pearl Harbor?

This is an absolutely beautiful glass paperweight, designed and produced by Newton Manufacturing Company of Newton, Iowa. The paperweight is in fantastic condition with the only wear being visibly present on the flattened bottom, which is expected with a paperweight.

There is no extensive damage present and the artwork is still highly visible with the text REMEMBER PEARL HARBOR / DEC. 7, 1941 surrounding American ships being bombarded by Japanese aircraft. The bottom of the piece has the manufacturer’s information.

The piece measures 3” in diameter and about 1¼” tall. Comes ready for further research and display!
