Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you,

a discrete leather box -



with a carefully concealed mirror -



which is covered by a leather flap revealing -



The Elta



Don't know much about this beyond it being made in England. Waits has another one listed but not this set. I have some researching to do ...
