    Small Brass Box. I am trying to find out what kind of box this is? It is 3" in height, 7" long, 5" in width. It does not lock but has a compartment to the left on the inside. Can anyone tell me what this box is used for?

      I think it's a Cigar Humidor

      5 in wide, small cigars?
    6. Vestaswind Vestaswind, 13 years ago
      Cigs? It's built like a humidor. You might be right. I didn't even look at the size
    7. Dizzydave Dizzydave, 13 years ago
      I wonder if it had inserts, either wood or glass? Dave

      On the inside of the top I see some wear. Could something of been attached there? Something that would help resist moisture?
