Description

4" (10 cm.) x 2 1/2". A heavy cardboard school bag with faux-leather and fur cover, leather straps, opens to reveal a wooden-frame slate board and little sponge for cleaning the slate, with a chalk lithographed drawing on the slate of little bunnies. Beneath the slate is a cardboard candy container. Along with a miniature bone whistle on rope. Excellent condition, the candy container is a rare novelty presentation in virtually flawless preservation. Circa 1900.
