Plate
Mahogany case to hold dry plates for cameras. Hinged and fastened with two metal clips. Two metal clips can be unfastened and the plate opens like a book - hence known as book-form plate holder. There is a dividing partition of black wood and metal, separating the two glass plates inside.This example has its two glass plates intact.
The numbers 1 and 2 appear in black on a small cream circle on the top of each side.
