      Fabulous high quality vintage note holder, they don't make 'em like this anymore. My husband loves this type to hold his receipts (& give me grief about my spending :)

      Thank you, Jenni! You are correct, the contemporary holders cheesy imitations of the older items.

      I like acquiring such things for their practical, aesthetic, and historical value. And with many of the businesses having gone by the wayside, their nostalgic value is priceless.
