stuart rowles Posted 25 November , 2021 Share Posted 25 November , 2021 This is a matchbox cover I bought a reecently. The front shows Ypres as it was and reverse shows how it was after the Germans had finished with it. Sadly I have been unable to find a matchbox of the era the go with it. So if you have one you might part with or know where I might find one please let me know. STUART Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interested Posted 25 November , 2021 Share Posted 25 November , 2021 Very nice find. Think I saw some old matchboxes in the Milestones Museum Basingstoke yesterday, not that that's any help. Good luck with your search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraG Posted 25 November , 2021 Share Posted 25 November , 2021 Hi Stuart - having recently purchased a matchbox cover for hubby I ‘googled’ for possible matchboxes to fit - eBay as ever has an assortment. Probably not helpful various questionable descriptions as vintage but interesting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joy Dean Posted 2 January , 2022 Share Posted 2 January , 2022 The matchbox that I have is not quite the same but I shall scan it later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
