Description
In terms of celluloid purses, this frame is not particularly beautiful in its design. A simple leaf and berry pattern decorates it. There is a nice decorative pull and green and red applied color. However, the majority of value in this purse comes from the watch that is inset in the handle. Until a few months ago, the watch still ran. However the crown has become loose and it no longer keeps time. Still, it is a rare and unique example which accounts for its value.
Size: 5.75 inches wide, 6 inches tall.
Value: 6 out of 10, with 10 being the most expensive.
