Posted by Anna You have one-half of a snack set. Until a few years ago--when I sold them on eBay--I had a couple of sets. And, although I can't send you a picture, I do remember the shape of the cups. On eBay there are a couple of good examples, albeit in blue. See eBay auction #7390391381 for one example. This is a lithopane cup, but it is the same shape as the Nasco snack cup. Also, see eBay auction #7389525282 for several Japanese cup examples. The closest example to the Nasco cup is the second cup from the left. These snack sets do still show up on eBay from time-to-time. However, these sets are unusual and collectible. I checked my reference materials but couldn't find a manufacturer's date for Nasco pieces. I'd venture a guess that they were made in the 1940s - 1950s (but, it's just a guess). Hope that helps,
