Pennsylvania Dutch Folk Art Tin Litho Covered Handled Lunch or Sewing Basket
This attractive oval metal lunch, storage, or sewing basket has a tin litho design of Pennsylvania Dutch folk art figures all around the sides and on the lid. I believe it dates to the 1930s. It measures 11" by 11-1/2" by 4-1/4" deep (not including the height of the hinged swing handles). It has wonderful, colorful graphics in red, yellow, green and white on black.
The basket is in excellent condition with little wear. The inside is clean with no rust or scratches, the outside has no major dents or scratches and no fading of the colors. There is a tiny, barely seen ding near the bottom at the seam, and a couple of tiny nicks to the litho finish, none much bigger than a pinprick.
Circa: 1930s - 1940s
Country of Origin: US
Manufacturer: Unmarked
