Interior with metal dividers, suggestive of magazines in shape, perhaps. Heavy, quality leather, brass, and workmanship, some attempts at repairs noted. Am thinking turn of the 20th century. Anyone? P.s. the kind of stuff ‘ol Cross mighta known, but one of you other rascals might just as well. Last edited by sandcritter; 07/22/19. Golldammed motion detector lights.

Neat piece of workmanship, but haven’t any use for it myself besides display. Thanks everyone. Golldammed motion detector lights. A guy can’t even piss off his porch in peace any more.
