Vintage 1950s retailer Carved Wood Piano-Shaped Cigarette Dispenser Box! Super Cool!

Once upon a time, I was at a weird and wonderful estate sale in a beach town in Florida. The estate being referenced had been amassed by a single gentleman with wildly diversified retailer taste over the course of his lifetime. An estate sale that was originally designated for the garage made its way inside to the living space, bedrooms, and front porch...there was SO much stuff (and only so much of it would fit in my car! Ha!). I plucked this little ~1950d vintage cigarette dispenser box off a dusty shelf that was laden with curiosities, relics, and throw-away d'objet of all sorts. This piano-shaped wooden box is unique from other piano cigarette dispenser boxes I've seen in that, instead of horn inlay, this sheesum box has brass, and more of it, inlaid all over (see photos for detail).

Especially for it's age (it's nearly 70 years old, give or take), it is in excellent condition and perfect working order. When it made its way into my shopping bag that day at the estate sale, I wasn't quite sure if it would stay with me or find a new home, after it got a good cleaning! Obviously, I think it needs to find its way home so here you have it!

Dimensions (approx.): 6.5"l x 4.5"e x 2.75"h
Condition: 9.5/10
