Lady's Book Vol. V.
Issued c. 1900-20's, United Kingdom (?).
Metal box created to look like a book on a shelf. With a removable metal tray within. There is a skeleton key lock, but no key for it.
Item is physically old and shows some signs of handling and time. Item is not new or in "new" condition.
Gently age worn, various small scuff/ scrapes to surface paint, mostly light or inoffensive signs of handling and time but nothing severe or unsightly, item remains overall attractive as an object.
Still attractive on the shelf. The book box displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in overall nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws which may be present seem easy to overlook or forgive.
Please review photos for more detail showing how this book box survives. The asking price reflects the condition based on our examination and 35+ years full time exposure to antiquarian books, maps and printed ephemera of all types and genres. Flaws seen and/ or described have been taken into account.
