| Comments: These small
novelty tins were
produced to hold non-safety matches and thus
each bears a striking surface to facilitate ignition. This one was
beautifully made in
the form of a small book with lovely embossing and a clasp to keep the book
shut. It is titled "vol 1" and there is a concave recess on the spine for a pen nib to be mounted.
It is in good condition visually and mechanically and has two
striking surfaces. To view other images of this item, please click here:
