Vinatge Stratton Powder Compact - Camera - cira 1956 - 60
This handsome square vintage Stratton compact was named the 'Camera' shape for women who liked a more generous sized compact mirror and powder well for loose powder.

To open the compact there is a push catch, which on opening reveals a large very clear mirror that still has the instruction stickers for opening the powder guard. The inner powder guard is also engine turned with a repeat series of four vertical lines and the Stratton in hand' logo with Stratton Made in England in the centre.Size 8.5cm x 7.5 x 1cm Circa. 1956 - 1960s1 available The compact will arrive in a blue Pink Monkey gift box.
