__________________________________
This listing is for a vintage
letter opener which was used to promote W.H. Christian & Sons
uniform business. The company is still in business today according to my
online research.
Letter opener is not dated,
however, I estimate it to be from circa 1950 with its hard plastic end and
old telephone number style.
It measures 8.5" long. The
metal end is VERY SHARP so be careful.
Condition - The plastic end with
writing in black lettering has some rub off, meaning a few places where the
black print has rubbed off but you can still read the name. Also has soiling
marks even though I rinsed it. Metal has some scratches and other
use marks. Important - Item is being sold "as is" as was
found.
Item is being sold “as
is” as was found. Buy with confidence as I offer 100% satisfaction guarantee.
