'Old Printer's Box' ~ Collectible

Collectibles : Printer's Box

 

This is a wonderful old printer's box which I used for many years to hold small little trinkets which I used then as a wall hanging. When I bought it in the 1970's I was told it was over 50 years old then. I do not know it that is accurate or not, but it is a wonderful piece, complete with dovetailing as seen in picture # 4. It does have a wire on the back for hanging. The printing on the bottom of the front says 'No. 3025 Quarter Size Cash'. It use to hold letters for printers type setting when print was hand set.

There are 15 little sections in the piece which each measure approximately 2" x 2-3/4". The box itself measures 7-1/4" x 15". The back of the box has a little circle with words which read 'The Hamilton Mfg. Co. Two Rivers, Wis' around the outside and 'Made in USA' in the middle.

Payments must be made within 10 days of your purchase, unless previous arrangements have been made. I would prefer PayPal for your payments - and you don't even have to have an 'account ' with them. My second preference for payment is a bank check/money order as there is no 'lag' time to wait for it to clear. If you send me a personal check I have to wait 4-5 business days for it to clear before I can mail your item(s). Thank you for your understanding!

HAPPY SHOPPING!
