Finnish metal matchbox
I want to show you a matchbox i recently acquired.
I think it is silver and the top has an area supposed to strike matches on, but the friction is long gone in the material.
It has the finnish lion, but I am not sure if the lion is applied later.
A russian friend says the design is similar to german match boxes he found when digging in russia.
This one has very little stamps in the bottom.
Has anyone seen these before, any information someone?
Big thanks in advance
