The items have the character in his tuxedo, top hat, and monocle. These items are not dated but they are believed to be from the 1930s. The first item is a hand painted full figure premium celluloid charm. The second item is an old advertising match book cover. It has the matches and striker cut off. The cover pictures Charlie McCarthy in an oval and it is marked as follows: CHARLIE McCARTHY
