A vintage, circa 1940s, girl's wooden box purse in the shape of a house, decorated with raised colored thick cardboard shapes of children, frogs, butterflies, mushrooms, etc. It measures about 8 inches wide, 6 1/4 inches high (not including the handle, which is white plastic with brass fittings) and about 5 inches front to back. The front of the "roof" is hinged and opens to reveal an interior lined with a printed daisy fabric. It is signed on the lower right with the intials "LJ" and the faded number "48", which appears to be the date. This box purse is old and does have chippy surface wear to both the cream colored paint and the cutout images. There are four little circles at the bottom corners, probably where there were little "feet" studs. The interior has a slight scent. But overall, this box purse is fully intact and makes a great item for a little girl to keep her treasures in. All it needs is a gentle cleaning and it is good to go.
