Description

The second is a Canadian Christie's Christy Brown Biscuits "Fox Hunting", c. 1900. There are some scratches, but still presentable. The third is unbranded with a picture on the lid of Persimmon, winner of the Derby in 1896.

Inside there would have been a ceramic inkwell, which is not present, and on the outside there is a little bit of metal missing, which would form a clasp it shuts with, however it shuts anyway. Condition: (Fair - Very Good). Dimensions: Largest: 8 - 1/2" x 13 - 1/2" x 2 - 1/4".
