It is a fully signed and marked Whiting and Davis mesh bag, purchased from the original owner, who received it as a gift from an auntie for being her flower girl in the Auntie's wedding. This was 76 years ago.
The little bag measures about 2-1/2 inches x 4 inches tall, not including the (original) chain link handle.
This may be the most FANTASTIC item I have ever found!!
Please see the photographs for details. Everything is in excellent condition for the age, with there being nominal chipping on the enamel around the edges. There is no corrosion, or rust of any kind, the clasp closes securely, and the frame and mesh are securely attached with no breaks in them.
Shipping price includes: Priority Mail, Insurance, delivery and signature confirmation
