Compliments of Home Insurance Co. New York Sterling Silver Match Safe! Circa 1880

[mangum]

Had a fun hunt yesterday with Chuck, Chris & Fred. My best find was half of a sterling silver match safe (circa 1880). A neat piece of advertising history! I wish I could have found the other half with the fire engine! (Example posted from web) It was hot, glad we had a shady spot in the woods!
