Does anyone know where I could find out more (phone number or website) about this specific compact like the year and how much it is worth? :Wadsworth – gold and silver metal compact with a map of the United States labeled with many cities and symbols. 7.5 x 7.5cm.

Just did some research looks like it probably is a woman's powder compact I looked that up and found pretty much the same thing except it had a mirror inside and a different designer on the cover, but i guess my question now is it worth anything??

Yes I have my doubts as to it being a woman's compact too, I could not find any maker's mark anywhere the only writting is the writting on the lid, yes the bottom dose open but it appear all it is, is a hook type thing that made it so when you press the knob on the outside in would open and all the cleaning I did on it was when I found it and I wipe the excess dirt off.
