This is for an empty tin vesta case advertising 'Loud Tone Needles, His Masters Voice' on the lid. It has the iconic image of the dog next to the gramophone and under the lid is the original Gramophone Dept label. These tins held record needles and were designed to be used as match boxes as there is a grooved strip on the base for striking matches. It is in excellent condition with no damage to it anywhere and it measures 33mm (1.25") x 45mm (1.75").
