All About Pocket Knives

The following posted piece of "ephemera" is NOT related to any cutlery company.
But, it is a letter that is dated June 6, 1923 and it is from the company that is
named on the handles of the posted pocket knife. The letter is in FANTASTIC
condition for being almost 100 years old. The pictures are of the pocket knife,
a dairy newspaper/magazine article (1922) and the letter.

COLONIAL Pocket Knife Display.
It contains six, mint condition, two blade pocket knives with bails.
By COLONIAL KNIFE CO., INC. From 1977. The display itself is VERY clean.
Took some pictures and here it is, or here they are.

A friend gave me this hinged knife presentation box which I really have no use for. Wondering if anyone here wants it? I'd be happy to send it to anyone who's willing to pay for the shipping (USPS Priority Flat Rate Small Box = $8.00).

Although there is no knife included, the info on the card, as well as the cut out, clearly indicates the box was designed for a Case Hawkbill Pruner SMKW SFO. It is in excellent condition and comes with the original cardboard sleeve as shown.

Approximate dimensions = 7¾" x 4¾" x 1"
PM me if interested.

Picked up a couple boxes, Ulster , Diamond Edge and a OVB knife purse.
