These are known as “Advertising
Ice picks”,
meaning that each has an Ice company name on it.
Ice companies used to give them away to customers
in hopes that customer would purchase ice from
the company again. Hence, the word “give
away or premiums." The Lucia’s have
only a few duplicate picks that they use for trading
with other collectors
for ice picks that they do not have. Included
in the collection is a pick vending machine that
was used by Liberty Ice until the mid 50's
Ice picks have either
wooden or metal handles. Either type can have
handles that are round or square. The metal ones
can be further divided into those having a bottle
opener or not.
