Approximate Measurements: 2-3/8\" tall
Includes: Item only / (Does not have original box or papers)
Condition: See photos / Great antique condition. Top has a couple minor - barely there- \'dents\'. The thimble looks like glue had been applied to keep the tip on, as it wasn\'t formed from one sold mold - piece of metal.
