Vintage Round Celluloid Pocket Mirror, Strauss-Rose Carpet Chicago, Advertising

Description

Fantastic antique celluloid pocket mirror, an advertising piece for Strauss-Rose Carpet Corporation which was located in Chicago's Merchandise Mart. Based on the style of the phone number listed on the front, this round mirror likely dates to the late 1940s to 1950s era. It's a fairly heavy piece - you could even use it as a paperweight!

I aim to please, and describe every item to the best of my ability. But please note that my vintage items often received frequent use back in their day, so may show visible signs of wear and age. Personally, I wouldn't have it any other way, as I treasure those marks of the past.
