✅ SOLVED What is this used for?

[2Minnesota]

It's a brass bristle brush. Small. Was purchased in a gallon bag of office supply type stuff. The bristles are not real stiff. There is a patent date on the case but I do not know if this case is original to the brush. I just thought it was kind of neat and curious to what it's used for Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

that patent number is for the hinge on the box and has nothing to do with the brush. Patent Images

Just as a guess, but is may be a hat brush for a man's fedora. Here are some examples.

Thank you! It could be a hat brush or a lint type brush. I was thinking more something to do with writing, paper etc because it was with a bunch of old pens/pencils, office type stuff. But then it could've been stored in a desk drawer with the rest of the stuff.

I found out what it is! Thought I'd update.

As I was taking a picture of it I noticed the word Oxco. Started looking and found this photo showing this brush as a suede shoe brush. sorry the pic is a screen shot of what I found online so it's blurry.
