I try and not get too distracted by this type of genre of collecting, but this was new, and cheap, and I had other parts in Japan waiting for shipment, so...

What is great, is the spout pivots at the bottom, thus changing the spout angle, aiding pouring. Made of metal, I don't know its age, but I suspect more towards the 1960's rather than the plastic 1970's...

Enjoy

    How does it pivot without leaking?

    I suspect that in order to be period correct, it should leak. 😄

    The spout is attached to a perpendicular tube underneath, see photos;

    Very creative! Have you tried it to see how well it holds fluid?
