which is pretty bright

I might guess 1950s or so but am not entirely sure

9" t x 5 1/4" w x 3" d and in excellent vintage condition

The instructions note that the aces were also originally treated with "diachylon" to adhere slightly to cards next to them

And what a great one

Paper Thin Beautiful Antique Brass Architect's Alphabet Stencil Set (Set A) Andre Dimanche carving which is pretty brightMy photos do no real justice, but I find these SO beautiful, paper thin and shining like liquid gold in the light. I purchased these from a seller in England, and believe they came from the estate of an architect. I'm listing a few complete alphabet sets, in different fonts. Finely made, and completely useful still, though also completely worthy of framing should one be so inclined. This set comes with a laid paper wrap printed with the letter "A"
