corkscrew was produced by Williamson Company of Newark, New Jersey.

These souvenir corkscrews date back to the mid 1930s and were apparently produced

into the 1950s. Hundreds of different vacation destination locations have been catalog

on these corkscrews.

Next to the ―Flash‖ corkscrew shown below is

the same type of coated paper label wrapped around a sheath. This one is on a key
