Lot #4:

William Henry Harrison Snuff Box

Back in 1840, a good snuff box was a prized possession. This 3 1/4-inch metal snuff box had an extra added attraction: it embossed with a pastoral scene featuring a log cabin and barrel of hard cider -- the symbols of William Henry Harrison's presidential campaign. It has a few minor surface indents. From the Rex Stark collection.
