For the sake of protecting it

now impossible to attain 212 Manhattan area code

perhaps it was all about making tracks

This one really makes me want to host an afternoon tea simply in order to serve from it

Lovely Antique Treen (Presumed Card) Box with Heart Cutout navigational tool For the sake of protectingI believe this lovely antique hardwood box was made to hold a deck of cards as it does so beautifully, fitting exactly one deck of standard dimension cards snugly inside, with the heart shaped window providing a peep. And, shaped like a little book, it could be stealthily slipped in among the the stacks in the library or parlor, then pulled out when in need of diversion! 4 1 8" x 3 1 8" x 15 16". Fits standard cards: 2 5 16" x 3 9 16". Very good
