    Trying to figure out what these were used for? Notebook/diary covers? Frame of sorts? I don’t see signs of them having been connected to anything in any way. Could be repurposed as a little box lid and bottom. Could be fun switch plates if modified. 62A35C9C-CF4D-4509-AC3D-A451CE51C802.jpeg BDB1993D-2F4D-4C79-9333-900940E0BF2A.jpeg EDE7A85E-9A3B-44F6-98BC-32B6E3B9307C.jpeg 6D9E7E67-E295-4729-8549-469BE00179FC.jpeg
