My Mission is to:

Describe my items accurately in description, color, condition, size and price.
Package very well, and ship same business day.

ITEM: I am selling an original wood case holding steel imprint 5/16" letters made by MILLERS FALLS COMPANY, in Greenfield, Mass approximately late 19th c. to early 20th c. "It was once considered the world's largest manufacturer of carpenters' and machinists' saws." These letters were used to stamp names on other metal or wood. The wood box is worn, but not unexpected having been used for the purpose they were created. There are 7 letters missing: H J P U W X Z, and 1 each extra of E O R. The name T O N Y is stamped on the bottom portion of the 2 part container. I have been a collector of interesting items these past 60 years, but now have to start finding new homes for my "stuff".
