Antique Mid 20th Century Metal Inland Telegram Forms Dispenser
Mid 20th century - 1962
A telegram form wall dispenser, this piece would have likely been used in a post office or public space to hold and dispense telegram blanks.
The brown painted metal box reads "Inland Telegraph Forms" and instructions to "Block Letters Throughout Please". The writing is in a lighter, contrasting colour.
The top has the access points where forms would have been retrieved. Within is an internal spring loaded plate to keep forms pushed to the top for easy access in British Post Office's or telegraph stations.
A lovely decorative item to display in an office, library or study.
The bottom has printed codes which references a date and model.
