DESCRIPTION

Measurements:


2 7/16" Tall
3/4" Deep
1 9/16" Wide

You are bidding on the exact, vintage Copper and Brass Matchbox Cover that you see in the photos. It depicts a 3 dimensional German Pickelhaube Spiked Helmet on the front with the words Gott Mit Uns which is German for God With Us. It also has a ribbon depicted on the side marked with Souvenir De France.
We are not experts or collectors so please see all the photos and consider them a part of the description. We believe this to be WWI era according to a few areas on the internet!! Some were calling it trench art but not really sure this fits that category. This one does not come up very often, we have only been able to find 2 other examples so information is somewhat limited. I am guessing that its made from copper and the raised image on the front is brass....maybe...not sure. So much detail on one little piece! There are no dings or dents on only slight wear, in my opinion, on the metal, nice patina. Not sure what kind of metal this is. Don't miss out on this one and please check out the other great Matchbox covers that we will be listing as well as all of our other items! We are happy to combine shipping as well on most items. Makes a great gift or addition to any collection!!

About Us

We are a family who loves history and treasure hunting!! Our business is a small one run from our house which is smoke free and pet free in the area where items are stored and listed. It is just Myself, My Wife, and our 11 year old daughter who also loves History and Picking. Before we list any item we give it a good once over to check for damage as well as research the item as best as we can to bring you the most information we can give you. We are not experts in anything but have a love for learning all. We work very very hard to keep our customers happy and coming back. If there are any issues all we ask is that you do not open a claim or leave negative feedback, contact us first and give us a chance to make it right for you, then if you are still not satisfied, do what you must (rarely happens but we are human). We pick several times a week so we are always listing new finds so check back often and save us in your favorite sellers. We also love to check out and buy (or consign) estates, collections, ect. so if you are in the area or close to us, and you fall into this category, please let us know and we will contact you. I am a teacher who teaches technical theatre and my wife helps me run the antiques and collectibles side of things. My wife also works at the Dover Antique Mall in Dover, PA so all of our items, with prior arrangements can be picked up there and will cost the buyer no shipping fees in that case. We try to teach our daughter about honesty, integrity, and responsibility and this is one way we do that so every transaction with us in an honest one! This is what we do and this is what we love.
