ozfred Posts: 87 Registered: Sep 2002	posted 10-15-2003 10:13 PM A small box, possible for postage stamps, circa 1920 (?), 57x50x10mm has a partial name of "?ltenspe?". Have been thru all the possible combinations as a town or personal name but to no avail The dealer purchased it Switzerland. Am hoping someone can fill in the missing letter and to identify either the maker or place of origin. Thanks, in anticipation! IP: Logged

P.S. I just did a search and found one item being claimed as '1920' and one '1965' so that widens the range a bit. Hope it helps!
