I&#039;m assuming this is an Italian souvenir plaster impression of Apollo in a little display case. I&#039;ve seen the plasters from the books, and cases for jewelry, but can&#039;t find another combined exactly like this. I&#039;m sure they exist...I just can&#039;t find one. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie38" alt=":cyclops:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]428565[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>The glass just sits above it and is completely removable. Plaster is in the book-style gold edged cardboard ring, and glued down. There&#039;s a fabric-covered paper ring filler outside of it that doesn&#039;t quite fit the whole way, but that&#039;s probably down to age.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]428566[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Edge is painted black, with no number like the book-style plasters. Case is wood covered in red velvet fabric that has worn away to only the insides and a small spot on the bottom. Fabric liner on top with no store printing. Push button closure, but case doesn&#039;t completely close. (Case photos in thumbnails.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Any ideas on age? Surely this has been seen before in everyone&#039;s vast internet travels. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":D" unselectable="on" /> I had wanted to pick up a plaster impression (the whole books are out of the question haaa), and despite the smushed face and cracks, I enjoy that this one is in a little display.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
