Description

This collectible treasure chest features a wraparound early world map illustrated with symbolic figures, ships, sea creatures and period topography. The inside of the lid charmingly reads "World Friendship among Children" and "Goodwill Greetings". These chests were made in the USA in the early to mid 1900s. History enthusiasts will enjoy finding George Washington, Ferdinand Magellan, Christopher Columbus and Old Man Winter, among the other figures across the map. A beautiful tin for display or storage. 11" wide, 6" deep, 5" tall. There is no matching key to go with the lock. Condition - Used - See Photos
