The Complete Tinder Box

CA. 1780-1820 New England tinned iron tinder box, complete with candle, flint, steel striker, tinder and the original damper plate. And, in case your fire-starting skills desert you, a package of 19th C. matches in their original wrapping. A very carefully made tinder box with a tall candle cup and a lid dished to contain the melted tallow. 4 1/2" diameter, 3 1/2" to the rim of the candle cup.
