PHARMACIE CENTRALE NOGENT SUR SEINE FRENCH TIN VESTA CASE MATCH SAFE STRIKER
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:4512333 | Material: Tin |
Type: Vestas |
Welcome to my auctions, and please remember to check out my ebay store / shop.
This auction is for an antique c. 1900 French advertising book shaped tin vesta case matchsafe, advertising 'Pharmacie Centrale' 'Nogent Sur Seine, Paris which I believe to be a pharmacy in Paris.
When the content of the tin was emptied, the tin continued to be used as a vesta match safe / pyrogene.
Lots of French advertising on the back, sides and spine.
The striker is a...t the front.
Opens from the front and still has a good spring shut.
Does have some wear but only to be expected from age and useage.
Measures approx. 5 cms x just under 4 cms with rounded corners.
Stands well on its own, a lovely early advertising piece. Please look at my other French tin vesta matchsafes examples.
An original piece, left in 'used' and un-cleaned condition, and would certainly compliment and display well in any match box or vesta matchsafe collection.
Please take a look at the pictures above and ask any more questions you may have, also take a look at my other vesta matchsafe listings, thank you. All of the above is my opinion. I am happy to combine postage where possible.
UK postage is £4.50, second class signed for post, with an option for next day special delivery if required. Packed very well to ensure safe delivery.
There is possibly cheaper post on ebay, and unfortunately items can go missing if there is not a signature required, thank you for your understanding.
For overseas transactions ‘International Track & Signed For’ or 'International Tracked' delivery will be used, depending on the destination country.
Paypal preferred for payment, but if you wish to pay by cheque please email before bidding. I would need to wait for cheque to clear before posting out. If you have a query regarding forms of payment, please contact me.
Any questions you may have, please do not hesitate to contact me, and I will do my best to answer as best I can, and if you require additional photographs please ask.
