<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shangas, post: 440711, member: 360&quot;]It&#039;s tricky to say. They don&#039;t sell for much. They&#039;re very common and most people only want them if they&#039;re in a set. </p><p><br /></p><p>On top of that, to my knowledge, you can&#039;t even buy the matches that these things used anymore. They used old-fashioned friction-matches (You know, the kind you could strike on a brick wall, etc). Modern two-part safety-matches won&#039;t work on something like this. So it&#039;s mostly a historical curiosity. </p><p><br /></p><p>People who would buy this would be looking to complete the restoration of a writing-case or traveling case of some kind. In which instance, they won&#039;t be paying much for it. $5, $10, $15, 20...not much at all. </p><p><br /></p><p>People think that because antiques are old, they&#039;re worth lots of money. The VAST MAJORITY of antiques are not worth anything at all. Don&#039;t let shows like Pawn Stars, or Antiques Roadshow fool you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
