I will post more on this item when I receive it.

Yesterday afternoon, these items got added to my CAMILLUS ephemera collection.
A 1972 catalog. It is complete and has 10 pages. The original envelope it was mailed in,
postmarked Sept. 21, 1972 and a general note to the buyer. The catalog is in Near Mint
condition. The envelope and note are in Excellent condition. The envelope discoloration
is exaggerated.
Captions, if any, are on the BOTTOM of the corresponding picture(s).

Very recently I obtained another CATTARAUGUS CUTLERY COMPANY pocket knife box/display.
The spring was used to hold the pocket knife that was on display, in place.
In this case it would've been a, according to the label, pattern #22459 pocket knife.
It's in good+ condition and it will display nicely.
It measures 2 3/4" X 4 5/8" X 2 1/2."

Thank you Smitty.

I bought this because the price was right. It is a ring blade. Used for cutting twine,
as on newspaper bundles. Used on fabric in the textile industry, etc., etc., etc.
It breaks down to three pieces. The ring, the guard/guide and the blade.
Here are a couple of links to some different, previously posted ring blades, not mine, on page 16.

Cool find Skip. I've never seen one built like that. The only ones I've seen are like the Handy Twine finger blades. My sis-in-law worked in several textile mills many years ago and showed me a couple she had. She said she mainly used them when she was in shipping.

New_Windsor_NY, nice trove of ephemera you've shown recently.
The trade cards offering cutlery are neat, especially when actual knives are shown on back.
