Description

From the seller
Rare Louisiana Purchase Exposition Silver Plate Match Safe with unusual advertising, "Compliments of Hoeffner's Hotel. Geo. Hoeffner, Prop., 1200 Clark Ave., St. Louis", Missouri. The match safe honored "Thomas Jefferson - Father of the Louisiana Purchase" and measures 2 1/2" long x 1 5/8" wide x 3/8" depth. The St. Louis World's Fair, as it was informally called, was held in 1904. (See photos). Very good condition.
