rather just sort of tap it

What I especially like about this one is the little pocket/recess for a thimble at the the center

as are the edges of the pages

Another example of a utilitarian object that someone took care to make just to their liking

c. 1940s Celluloid "Dainty Dominoes" Double Nines Set (3 Missing) small antique box rather just sort of tapSuper cute, and quite special feeling, too I've bought and sold a lot of dominoes, and a lot of domino cards, too, but I've never seen another set of these: a double nines set of celluloid "Dainty Dominoes", c. 1940s or so, in original blue cloth four pocket folding pouch. All those black dots against the glossy white of the celluloid (thin but hard and very durable) really does it for me; such a happy surprise to open the pouch to find them there,
