Vintage Clam Shell Compact of Mirrors for Purse - 1950's. Condition is "Used". Shipped with USPS First Class.This mirrored compact has been passed down to me in boxes of treasures by family members. I have had it sitting in my dresser drawer since the early '60's. It is in excellent condition; never having been used by me or anyone else. Mirrors are secure with no cracks or crazing. No chips in case.
One of the mirrors is magnified. I try not to look at this one. The other is normal; not much better.
Hinge intact; snaps closed; nice and thin for holding in your purse. Measures: 3 1/2" x 3 3/4" x 1/2" Color of the shell is dark brown, which is captured best by the photo of the open shell.
One of the interesting things about this compact is that it is stamped "Hong Kong"; no other markings. Researched and found that Hong Kong products were popular in the 1950's.
