Help With Oddball Bobby Orr Item (ashtray?)

[Leafsfan1967]

Posted this on another board, but didn't get any help on it. Tried finding one of these on ebay, but had no luck at all. This looks to be an ashtray, or candy dish? It's made of really hard plastic (acryllic maybe?), and appears to be in minty shape. I had 2 of these given to me years ago, but just found them recently. This is about 4"X4", and the only markings on the back is the letters mb inside a rectangular box, and italy printed underneath it.

Sorry about he poor scan, but it was tough to get it to scan at all, because of it's oddball shape, and it not being flat, but the picture isn't blurry on the real item, lol!! I was wondering if anyone has any info on it at all, and are they at all rare, it's age, and maybe a value if one would guess? Also, were there other players available, or just Orr? Thanks in advance! Troy

EDIT: After some more Google searching, I found this link from the Hockey Hall Of Fame (see link below). So what does this mean? Is there one of these ashtrays on dispay at the HHOF?

There was a whole series of bruins players done. Orr being the big star is by far the most common. Usually sells in the $25 range. there are some really tough to find ones that still sell for a couple hundred each.

Thanks for the help! It makes sense that they would have made more of the Orr ones, as he was the most popular guy. I'm gonna take a look tonight to see if I can find some of the others listed on ebay. Not sure what to use as a keyword, though. I'm guessing Phil Esposito may have one? I'll have to see who was on the Bruins back in the early 70's, and do a player search by search, I guess.

Also, I did some more poking around just now, and found 3 of the Orr's on completed listings, which i didn't find yeaterday while looking, lol!! One ended at $23.50, one at $49.95, and the last at $49.99 (all not including shipping)

Thanks, Robert! I will check it out in a bit! I didn't even know Walton played for the Bruins?

He was a smoker when he played. That much, I know!

Just found an Orr listed on ebay for $54.99, and I saw a bunch more of different Bruins players.

They were listed as collectible plates. I had a couple. The ones I had weren't ashtrays.
