    I can understand keeping it; it's the bullet that had her name on it!

    I've been buying stuff out of this case in a mall near Cape Cod since I was a young kid (40ish years). I bought it today, mostly for sentimental reasons but also the fact that it was super cheap in a liquidation sale.

    Came with the original key too!
    Needs a little touch up paint and I'll replace the electrical cord and lamp fixture.

    Are you going to use it for display at home?

    I think my wife has claimed it for her razor blade collection, which has outgrown the case it's in.
    This case was a fountain pen display with a diagonal shelf, I'll have to rig a horizontal shelf for it.

    I strongly suspect that it is a Susie Cooper design. Her early Grays stuff was often not attributed and that tureen screams her name.

    Now, now Bakersgma, at least he's not a baboon/mandrill that looks like he is in need of a big bucket of anesthetic salve all over his behindy. I actually feel "sympathetic pain" seeing those in real life or in photos. :eek:
