My Capy Rix's antique faire find!...

While a chip would be better, or even a tray, I'm certainly happy with this "I'll toss it in with the cost of the ashtrays" matchbook cover!

I found it in a box of about 200, very weathered covers. While obviously in pretty poor condition, it certainly is a nice artifact of an establishment that was open for about a year ('47/'48) on the North shore of Lake Tahoe. All the matches were gone and I pulled the rusted staple and match stick block in order to better scan the cover.

Thanks for looking!

Jim
