gregM Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 (edited) The piece is from "Wollenberger & Co." 105 So. La Salle st.-- Chicago It has a US. 5 cent stamp on it, unfortunately the date on the cancellation is not readable. My guess is somewhere in the 1920s. I blocked out the name and address of the buyer in case he or his family is still around. Edited March 22, 2012 by gregM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregM Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 The inscription in the bottom of the box says-- "In memory of the great war and your loyalty to the old country" (Thanks Chris for the translation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Boonzaier Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Very nice indeed. I had one in a blue box with a silver EK printed on the lid. This one is really interesting because of the dedicaton slip. Best Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
