SOLD Make Do Fly Swatter with Velvet and Corduroy Edging santo with a little minor curling

with a little minor curling

perhaps to fill with some shells and hang on the wall

I also really love the names of some of the colors: "soft Wedgwood blue"

and I think these vintage photographs are very beautiful

The frame shows wear and some losses

SOLD Make Do Fly Swatter with Velvet and Corduroy Edging santo with a little minor curlingA nice old fly swatter of the make do variety, seemingly product of having just enough purple velvet scrap to make it around the top edge of the mesh, and just enough brown corduroy to complete the lower. Then twisted wire ending in a turned wood handle stained red with purplish detail on one side. Very good for swatting still or just hanging on the wall. 17 1 4" l x 3 5 8" w x 5 8" d at handle. Very good condition, 1930s 40s I'd guess.
