It would appear that the original buyer did not put their name on the outside of the box, I wonder why? ;)
I feel very happy for the person who put this out on the shelves of the place you bought it.
This sort of thing, I'm afraid, was a "heartsink item" to find in the back rooms.

On the other hand, it would have been exactly the sort of thing my late loopy and lovely Aunt would have loved to have been given.
She gave me a little wooden plaque to hang my house keys on, with a prayer for the house on it!  :-X

I did find a boxed Chance 60th birthday beer mug - David got fobbed off with it at an appropriate time. ;D
