Large Substantial Design, Swiss circa 1950's

This very handsome magnum design comes to us from Switzerland.  This is a true brute at 13 1/2 " long and and an opening of 1 3/4".   The throat alone is 5" long and the body stands at an impressive 4".  If "size matters" then this is in the top 1% of  male urinals.  It has a intricate rim design and a beautiful tapered throat with a beginning circumference of 8 1/4" graduating down to 6 1/4" at its yoke.  The mold seam is also unusual on this urinal in that it literally cuts the vessel in half making its profile visually flawless.
