Item description from seller

Unusual wooden dance card from the turn-of-the twentieth century. 10 by 10 cm, at the tallest and widest. The wood has a rich mahogany stain, and a top piece, the on with the name of the event, can be gently lowered to serve as a platform. The back side is lined with a lush green silk. With the removal of the ivory-headed thin pencil there, one can open the four-leafed oblong booklet listing in gold lettering the dances of the evening. Green twine and tassels are attached above and below, one with a hook for a lady to attach to her gown and otherwise ornamental frills. The silk satin lining has some color fading, and on one side is buckled a bit -- it is not lying completely flat, as it once would have here.
