Looks like a nice saltbox from what I can make out.

Looks like a recipe card box to me. Looks a little to new to be a saltbox.

should have included the size

its rather large

10 inchess across by 9 inches tall--not including the back part that is decorative on top

I have been looking at salt boxes I think that may be right

Now that I know the size I think it is a nice box to put things in.

This is very cute! The screws fastening the hinges are Phillips head, so if they are original to the box, that would make it after the 1930s. Are there any other pieces of hardware such as nails or any markings on the bottom or inside?
