National Silver Co. v. United States

Donlon, Judge:

Certain plastic mugs which were imported from Hongkong at the port of Boston on April 12, 1962, were classified by the collector as nonenumerated manufactured articles, dutiable under paragraph 211, Tariff Act of 1930, by virture of the similitude provision of paragraph 1559. Plaintiff’s protest made two claims: First, for classification by similitude under paragraph 218 (glassware); and, second, for classification under paragraph 1558 as nonenumerated manufactured articles, but without operation of the similitude provision.

The first of the protest claims has been abandoned.…
