We celebrated my friend’s grandfather’s birthday recently (he turned 102!!!) and I spotted this box. She used it to store stickers to give out to kids. :) Originally it contained candy and was made in the 1950s.
This blog is about old postcards, book illustration and all kinds of paper whimsy from the Soviet Union. I'm a long time collector, and this blog is 7 years old. I have an etsy shop for cards, books, pins and vintage finds from Russia.
These vintage tin boxes are now available in my shop! The 🐠 one is from hard candy, the other two tooth powder.
