Vintage Stamp Holders

On our ski trip at the end of December, we went into historic downtown Durango for an afternoon. There was a neat little antique shop on the main drag, the Durango Antique Market, that I saw from across the street and had to check out. I like walking around antique shops, but don't always buy things. On my way out, however, I spotted a couple of vintage stamp holders that I couldn't pass up.

The one-tier holder was about $15 and the two-tier holder was about $25. Call me weak, but although I didn't really need both, I couldn't talk myself out of leaving one behind.

When I got home, I put the one-tier holder to good use for a few wood-handled address stamps and an ink blending tool:
