Match Box
This match box was used by my parents for
many years. I don't know its origin, but
I remember it in the basement at 132 South
Oneida Street, Green Bay, Wisconsin, from
the mid-1920's. It was mounted near the
furnace and remained there when the house
was sold to Carl and Marian Sippel in 1950
or 1951. They continued to use the box for
matches in the basement until 1982. They
gave it to me for Christmas 1982. It
continues in use for matches beside our
Franklin stove.
The box is wall-mounted of cast iron, and
is of self-closing design. It measures
about 3¾″ × 2¼
× 1″ – just right for a
handful of wooden kitchen matches. These
words are cast on the lid: Self Closing
– for matches &c. –
Patented Dec. 20, 1864 – D.N &
Co. – New Haven . The bottom is
made rough as a place to scratch the
matches. The remainder is coated with
black enamel.
In 1983, I removed the original enamel
and recoated it with new black enamel.
