Late 19th-to-early 20th-century country store advertising: a vintage wooden merchant display box by D.M. Ferry & Co. (Detroit, Mich.).
Condition: Very good vintage condition. The quartersawn oak wood is strong and solid with gorgeous grain, featuring zero major cracks or heavy scratches. The finger-jointed corners are tight and intact. The interior features the original instructional paper broadside affixed to the lid, which remains remarkably clear and legible. Metal hinges and hardware are original and function properly.
Dimensions: Approximately 6.5 \times 9.5 \times 4 inches.
Features: Solid quarter sawn oak with great grain pattern, this piece retains incredible historic charm and makes for a striking display or storage box. The hand cut dovetails is a sign of good quality and workmanship.
Please review all photos closely for exact cosmetic details. A fantastic, clean example for collectors of antique advertising, general store ephemera, or agricultural history!
