    An estate find in rural nebraska. I have minimal antique / vintage sewing items expertise, but want to share.

    Simplicty Needle Case (Tin) in Very nice shape. Containing 128 wood cases each containing 2-4 needles. Estimate over 300 needles. On the inside lid is the interchangeable needle list, and a paper interchangeable list as well.

    I have looked up similar needle case items and had not seem this item, Age of this item is unknown, estimate 1920's 1930's.

    I think this is a rare (complete) to the best of my knowledge) sewing item find.

      See Craig's Antiques & Appraisals. They list one example less complete than yours @ $125 or simply google Simplicity needle case.
