    Description
    A
    souvenir
    leather change purse  from the World's Columbian Exposition held in Chicago in 1893. The 2 1/4" by 3 1/4" purse is faced with a stamped plate showing the Horticural Building in relief. The plate  has a couple of small dings that can be seen in the image, and has a good warm patina, It and the frame are in otherwise very good condition. The soft black leather pocket is pretty much shot, but replaceable. After some effort, I have not encountered another example  of this purses.
