Mauchline Transfer Ware Pin Cushion Waxer and Tape Measure Made of Dunkeld Wood

Description

I have the honor and privilege of selling the collection of an avid and discerning collector of Mauchline Ware consisting of transfer, checker, Parian, fern and tartan ware with a smattering of a few other finishes. I will be listing them in bite size batches over the next several months so that over time collectors can absorb the depth and breadth of the collection. This gentleman amassed an amazing collection of pieces, some of which I have never seen before and I have seen many collectors' collections over the years. This is a unique combination pin cushion waxer and tape measure all in one. There is no transfer, but it is embellished with the words, Made of Dunkeld Wood. This piece was an advertising promotional give away for the firm of Anderson Booksellers, Dunkeld.
