STEPHEN DECATUR / MACEDONIAN SNUFFBOX
Lacquered Papier Mache Stephen Decatur Snuff box
Circa: 1820
Size: 3 1/2" D x 3/4" H

A hard to find subject in this series of War of 1812 historical boxes. The print depicts, "THE U.S. FRIGATE UNITED STATES STEPHEN DECATUR ESQR. COMMANDER CAPTURING HIS B.M.'S FRIGATE MACEDONIAN OCTOBER 25TH, 1812."

Condition: Very Good. These boxes typically are pretty beat up because of the papier mache body, this example is in quite good condition with the box remaining strong - loss to print in the perimeter as apparent in the images

Price: 875.00.
