Wabanaki Sweetgrass Basket Pin Cushion Moxie memorabilia I assume in the 1970s

I assume in the 1970s or so

and Film Studies at the Rotch Library for Architecture and Urban Planning

but with no tears otherwise and a gorgeous patina to the leather on both sides

with just a bit of red wax residue around the lip that I should be able to fully remove

Wabanaki Sweetgrass Basket Pin Cushion Moxie memorabilia I assume in the 1970sI'm becoming a sucker for a sweet pin cushion, in addition to a nice Northeast Coast Native basket, so of course I love this little combination of the two! I believe this one dates to the early 20th century, with the basket woven of sweet grass on a naturally green dyed splint ash structure and the pin cushion a rosy pink velvet. It has seen some use, with small holes in the velvet, but has plenty of years of use in it yet. 2 3 4" diameter x 1 3 8"
