By
International Brotherhood of Pulp, Sulphite, and Paper Mill Workers, 1968. Unbound. Near Fine. Folding printed cardboard coin collection box. Approximately 3" x 4" x .75". A little rubbing, else very near fine. Printed on two larger sides with an image of a pressman examining a newspaper freshly pulled from a hand press and "Freedom of the Press. The Worker", and with the words "Equal Rights", "Peace", Jobs" and with a small image of a dove of peace, on the narrow side. Small stamp of the International Brotherhood of Pulp, Sulphite, and Paper Mill Workers, founded in 1909. Many newspapers were named *The Worker*, the most famous and probably the most likely in this case was *The Daily Worker* beginning in the early 1920s and published under different names and formats until 1991. This box seems likely to coincide with the paper published by the Communist Party from 1958 until 1968. Scarce and curious.
