19th C. Tin Book Shaped Box in Original Paint wooden boxer dog Overall in very good condition--cleanSmall, and rare, this tole (painted tin) book shaped box is still holding onto some of its original red paint on the covers and spine and yellow orange on the pages. Whether made as a snuff box or a match holder I am not completely sure, but definitely 19th c. and if you, like me, love all things book shaped, and also boxes of all kinds, a sweet little addition to a collection. 3 1 8 t x 2 1 8 x 1 3 16. Aged, as evident, with just a little separation
