This is a vintage used item, in good used condition, with some signs of age/wear; the matchbook has had matches removed, striking strip shows wear with small perforations near base from staple removal, there is rubbing to surface of paper, mild edgewear and associated corner wear, fading to interior cover with minuscule points of blemish/distress, light wear along/about folds, light wear to graphics, faint fading/smudging. Overall paper quality is good; smooth/glossy, with good preservation of color/sheen and typography/graphics still sharp/clear. There are no excessive nicks, chips, rips, tears, perforations, stains, residue or repairs.
The matchbook cover measures approx 1.5" x 4.5" and contains no matches, which was the acceptable guideline for matchbook collecting up until the 1960's and is part of a collection of over 2300 matchbook covers from the 1930's to the 1970's.
