I love an old box found with a collection inside, especially if that's a collection of old dice! The paper label on the jointed, slide lid box here reads Goodyear Rapid Needles, Manufactured for the United Shoe Machinery Co, Boston, by Excelsior Needle Co, which a little research helps me date to right around 1890. But of course it is the handmade wooden dice I really love, in a variety of sizes, some with dots marked in ink, some graphite, and there is some color on the near black ones;  some drawn right onto the surfaces, but most with the dots just a bit incised. All a little wonky in one way or another, which is just how I like them! And with "Shimes" handwritten on two exterior sides of the box, which seems to me perhaps a misspelling of "Shims" as this would be a good sort of box for stashing bits of wood to slip under a table leg here and there to level, but I don't know for sure.

 Box 3 7/16" x 2 5/8" x 1 1/4". Smallest die 3/8" cubed. Box and paper label shows plenty of wear, all to the good in my opinion. All pictured included.  Lid slides on smoothly and snugly.
