Title: Antique Box
Post by: herphandler on April 20, 2008, 05:10:53 PM

Hey, I just got back from my grandmas house. She showed me this metal antique box that she is thinking of selling if it is worth anything.
So I offered to post it around asking what people think of it.

The two metal rings and the white ring may be thimbles from companies advertising.
