A PICKWICK MATCHBOX
“Bil Stumps his mark”
A Dickens Match Box.—There is a great revival of interest in Charles Dickens just now, and there are a large number of people who love their Pickwick. In case some of these may like to possess the quaint match box which has just been presented to me—a replica of the famous “ Bil Stumps” stone—I reproduce it here. The match box is made in both silver and electro-plate by the Potosi Silver Company of Birmingham. It may be purchased at the establishments of Mappin and Webb in Oxford Street and Queen Victoria Street.
