Vintage Folders for Needles -3 different ones-one advertising-National Life Insurance:
Vintage League of Needles Assortment folder -Made in Japan-Very Old. Several tears and in kind of rough condition - the one corner is unattached now. When you open the folder, the pockets for the different kind of needles are shown. The background shows flags and scenes from around the world. The pocket that says Sharps No. 1/3 has a bunch of needles inside it. The black box on the lift, when lifted, shows places to put more needles with one still attached. Says it came with 75 needles. I would say this is from the early 1900s but couldn't find a date.
National Life and Accident Insurance Company Folder - one folder inside says Six and Rands Sharps 3/7 5 needles - made in Japan. Has some needles still inside. The other one says Time the Test Trademark - made and warranted by Morris & Yeomans LTD- Astwood Bank, Redditch England. It has a couple of needles still inside.
The third one says Best English Needles - Redditch England with a picture of a woman sewing. This may just be the top of the folder.
All three pictured are very old. No dates on any of them. The category this is under says 1930 to present. I'd say all of these are older than that but that isn't a sewing collectible category earlier than that, that I can find.
