Sold for A$60
Wooden box with original paper labels to front and inner lid for: Lewis & Whitty's / Diamond Oil / Blacking featuring Monkeys variously engaged polishing a boot etc. (Melbourne, Victoria). Miscellaneous. Advertising. Medium sized wooden box with a kind of stapled hinge lid. Brightly coloured paper labels. 280 x 200 x 135 mm. 1890s
Very Good. (N/A). The box is dusty and grimy. There is some damage and wear to the labels - more so the outside one. Chunk out of the wood to right. Some stains and discolouration. A really wonderful piece! Note that the two labels are different! We have sold one of these before in Auction 29, this is the very same item. Estimate: $40-60
