A RARE 19TH CENTURY CONNECTICUT PAINT DECORATED TOLEWARE DOME TOP DOCUMENT BOX WITH ORIGINAL PAINT. A very fine 1830s tin toleware document box with original paint and hardware. The front and sides are painted with orange and green leaves on a linen white background and the back is black paint. These boxes are very rare and rarely come up for sale. The front has some wear (see pictures) but the paint is still intact. A lovely addition to a toleware collection. The box has original receipt of purchase by an antique shop in Wooster, Ohio in 1983 with a purchase of $125. Measures 7 1/2 inches in length, 3 5/8 inches tall, and 3 1/4 inches wide. As a collector of toleware, I have never seen this type of design before.
