Other factices include a PARERA Tentacion factice from 1927, one of two in the world, the other one is on display at the Museu del Perfum in Barcelona.

The collection is currently on view at Facticerie: The Factice Collection, an exhibition in Hackensack, New Jersey. The space was redesigned to mirror the interior of Lascoff Drugs, an Upper East Side institution that closed in 2012, after 113 years in business.
