<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Steve Shubinski, post: 2489421, member: 15688&quot;]I am guessing this would be a compact as there is a mirror inside but maybe used for something else.&nbsp; The box is made from a heavy paper material like cardboard and covered in velvet.&nbsp; The mirror is in the inside top and on the bottom inside of the box is written Dec. 25th 1846.&nbsp; Someone covered that in tape to preserve it I guess. The box is 2 1/2&quot; long x 1 5/8&quot; wide.
