This matchbook from the 1940s has a couple of things going for it. Unused sitting in a box is a long sentence. How did it stay in such good condition. I didn’t realize that these were made by the gun manufacturer and also made in CT. Finally, if you are a frustrated copy editor like me, you will get hung up on the phrase “...you ever had” which seems to imply comparison before using the product. guns and razor blades- together at last. #found #matchbook #marlinguns #firearms #advertising #shave #1940s #estatesale #urbanarcheology
