Rushour Match Vendor

Madison Tool & Stamping Works., c. 1927, 16 ¹/₂". This is a straightforward 2-column match vendor with enough going for it to be interesting. It's made of sheet metal, and has a faux-mahogany painted finish. The key to this model is to find one in good condition, which most aren't. In nice shape it looks rich. In poor shape it looks cheap. This is one of the nicest examples I've seen, which is why I bought it. Note the tag on top, and the (in my opinion) neat coin-insert cover.

This example is 100% original.
