Purses
1960? Severin Original Wooden Box Purse Presenting TH. 6.5" x 3.75" x 3.75". Signed "Severin" on the inside cover. Unknown source.
Here is one of the more unusual objects in the collection. I learned what it is only by going online and seeing another instance for sale, with a price of $150 discounted to $75. I had wondered whether it might be a lunchbox. The four sides track the race from the starter's line to the finish, where the hare is sleeping five feet from the finish! The pictures seem to be carefully applied decals. The artist signs the last image "Carl." I wondered if the images themselves might be found on the web, but there I had no luck. I ask myself what the occasion might be for carrying a TH purse.
