They Don't Make Them Like They Used To

Hi all!
No digs lately, Snow, Snow, Snow.
Just before the storm, I found these items on the surface of a rocky inland beach.
(A Promising New Site) :hello2:
How long would a book of todays matches hold up :dontknow:
I Figure this is close to a century old :o
Also the 'Lady Esther' makeup & brass beads.
Decent eyeball finds.
Great digs to you all, Thanks for Looking! :thumbsup:

Re: They Don't Make Them Like They Used To

Luckily for us they dont make them like they use to.
All of these cool relics we are finding,are unique in that the
materials being used today have little quality..............K.KID. :icon_sunny:

That's REALLY Cool that it survived like that..... How old do you think it is :icon_scratch: HH! Mike.
Hi Mike,
I guess early 20th century, I just searched for 20 minutes and the closest I came is this link (not very close) http://www.militarymight.co.uk/stock_list.php?type=NA==
Many tides & storms washed over this match case :thumbsup:
