Anglo Boer War The Handy Man Celluloid Letter Opener

A scarce item, circa 21.5cm long. No damage. The Royal Navy 's answer to the imagery of the Army's A Gentleman in Kharki. False ivorine in look, these celluloid plastic figures were the forerunner of all those Airfix soldiers we used to collect (and it also looks to be 1:32 scale)! They came mounted on a variety of useful household items such as a tot measure, bell, bottle cork, pin cushion and also this letter opener.
