Vintage Brass Metal Postage Stamp Case

This vintage piece features an engraved postal wave cancellation mark design across the outer lid, giving it a distinct and stylish mail-themed aesthetic. Custom-sized at exactly 3” x 1.5”, it was crafted to elegantly fit standard wax-paper glassine stamp booklets from the mid-to-late 20th century, preventing them from getting bent or stuck together while in a pocket or purse.When snapped open, the interior reveals a stunning engine-turned (perlage) swirling finish that beautifully catches the light, a signature design hallmark of quality mid-century vanity and desk accessories. A brass lip runner inside securely clips your stamp booklet or folded loose stamps flat.  Item is preowned and vintage and in good condition for age. May show wear consistent with age, use and storage.  Please review all photos carefully for detail, details, description, and condition.
