VINTAGE ELGIN AMERICAN LIPSTICK FANCY HOLDER case w/mirror

Description

[zipedit]
;
ITEM TYPE
: vintage square lipstick holder with mirror, and a lipstick tube in place.
MAKER/MARKS
: Elgin American. The lipstick not named, but is a medium reddish . (I recommend only as DISPLAY and collection....not to really use decades old make up!)
DIMENSIONS
: oblong holder approx 2 1/4" x 3/4" x 3/4"
CONDITION
: Holder very good, minimal wear.,
goldtone
with beautiful etching on the mirror cover.
When
you slide the outer holder off the lipstick holder, a little metal cover flips back to reveal a mirror.
Sliding
them back together puts the mirror cover edge under the tab and holds it in place. The tab slides up to reveal
the old lipstick (which was probably a replaceable tube back "in the day"...) ...though
the
lipstick is yucky looking (DO NOT USE DECADES OLD MAKEUP)
. A wonderful addition to a personal vanity collection!
Thanks for shopping with me!
