Last Saturday morning before we went to the park to see the fishing derby participants and my family gather there for them. we went to a few yard sales... this was my thing i found for me. ( probably paid too much for it) $30.00 (metal drawer pull on the side reads Hamilton) but, I've wanted one for a long time so... had originally intended to put some of Tim's antique lures into it, but since the drawer does not have glass on the front he thinks that's a bad idea... ( and that i should keep if for sentiment stamps) what a guy. :) if i only had a wall in the play room to hang it on...
such is life.

I love your treasure. I would say it is an old typeset tray.
This link will give you a bit of history.

I am sure you will find a use for it. *wink*
Oh, lucky you! I'd have paid $30 for that in a heart beat!! I think you got something unique and wonderful.
Oh that is super cool!
I used to have one of those I kept miniatures in (remember THAT stupid craze???). I've been trying to figure out what I ever did with it just so I could hang it in the den for stamps.
Hope you find a great use for it soon. Good buy!!!
