Margo, Please make everyone aware that these KKK items are being sold as Salem witch items and there are at least two different items being sold by these people. They are brand new. Never made by Tiffany are KKK not Salem Witch never made as old pieces and this is a scam. I leave early tomorrow AM for 7 weeks on the road or I would contact ebay again myself. I have contacted the people twice and they do not respond. They know darned well what they are doing. Pamela > > Beware picture link below > http://pages.tias.com/2448/PictPage/1921134625.html >

I agree with Pamela. The hooded figure holding the book, the presence of the two crosses, and most significantly, the U.S. flag flown upside down -- all those are KKK emblems. The little witch on the back of the money clip and the words "Salem" appear to be part of the maker's mark, that's all.

There is no question about these being made in the past few years. There were New fakes made in the late 70s with Tiffany marks on the back. well Tiffany never made them and I even met the guy who was faking them in UK one day as I was out antiquing there. I know the Salem Witch items very well, I spend my life looking for them and researching them. I don't want to see anyone hurt on these items and I resent them selling KKK items for Salem WItch items. If you get offered these items or see any like them they are outright fakes. I will be away for 7 weeks but If any more come up I trust everyone is smart enough and ethical enough to blast the perpetrators. How horrible equating Salem Witch victims with the KKK! Merry Christmas to all!
