DescriptionThe American Merri Lei Company was named that because they originally started out making paper Leis! The owner of the company, Victor Hoeflich, invented a machine for making the leis while he was still in high school - in 1914! By 1949 the company was shipping millions of paper leis to Hawaii. They made really charming paper novelty items - candy containers and nut cups, as well as holiday decorations. They are not as well known as their bigger competitors such as Dennison and Eureka, but their paper products were very high quality, and really adorable designs. Their biggest creation that they are remembered for is the Radio Hat, a hat that was introduced in 1949 and billed as the Man From Mars Radio Hat - it was a hat that had a built in radio and sold for $7.95 - a vast sum in 1949! Sadly, the company disappeared in the 1960\'s.This listing is for a 1940\'s or 1950\'s gorgeous Halloween die cut skull decoration.
