Described (on ebay) as:
condition is good - edge wear from tape
sepia - circa 1900s
measures approx. 3 1/4" x 4 1/2"

Love the celluloid plotter, It looks *exactly* like a Perspex one from
the '70s. If this can be authenticated as 1900, it is extremely R@RE
and of national historic importance :-)

The radio in the background would also be UN!QUE. Personally, my best
guess is '50s to '70s.

Another 'quality' ebay spammer here. Hope Marisa isn't similarly
confused about ages when using live models . . . . .

The date of creation does say 1950's - now.
