Card wallet of pins and needles ("Clark Street Council School Sports Fund"), c.1920s-30s (SOLD)

A c.1920s-30s card wallet of pins and needles, measuring approximately 6.3 x 5.2cm / 2.5 x 2.05in (but stapled and folded slightly out of alignment), with a black and white photograph of a pretty girl on the front; the back is printed "In aid of / CLARK STREET / COUNCIL SCHOOL / SPORTS' / FUND. / Price 2d. each. / Raistrick & Co. Ltd. Bradford".  The wallet still contains eight of the original twelve pins and five of the original seven needles, although these are somewhat tarnished (one or two also having slightly rusted), and none of the original four safety pins remain; the wallet itself has suffered general wear commensurate with its age, including considerable marking, discoloration and slight creasing, and there is slight rust to the staple.
