Description
Stick Em Up or I'll Sew You!A novelty early 20th century sewing kit concealed in a replica gun, the handles pull back to reveal a fixed mirror, scissors, thimble etc. To the base of the handle conceals a small little glass vessel.
These quirky little sewing kits are believed to have been used by ladies travelling alone on the railways from the early 1900's, the mirror was designed for you to see a view from behind and the gun at the time was a convincing deterrent.
Dimensions: Length: 18 cm (11 Inches), Height: 9cm (6 Inches), Depth: 4cm (1 5/8 Inches
Price inclusive of postage within England & Wales
