HIKOOKI Gramophone Needle Tin (1000 size)

Large HIKOOKI gramophone needle tin featuring an early sea-plane.  HIKOOKI in Japanese means aeroplane.  This would have been the latest in Japanese aviation technology at the time so that helps date the tin to the early 1900's.  This tin originally contained 1000 needles and there was also a 200 size made featuring a different plane.  These are very scarce and hard to find in this condition.

This large tin measures 92mm (w) 62mm (h) 16mm (d)
