Old matchbook from St. Louis found in Tokyo antique store — 2 Comments
How old was it?
I think we can narrow it down to between 1943 (when addresses like St. Louis 15, MO were introduced) and 1963 (when 5-digit zip codes were introduced).I think it’s interesting that I ran across the matchbook in Tokyo. I wonder how it ended up in that shop.doug
