Vintage Snow White Pyrography Set

A Snow White wood burning kit manufactured by Marks Brothers Company of Boston. "© 1938 Walt Disney Enterprises." The box cover depicts the dwarfs with etched wooden plaques and Dopey holding an electric etching pencil.





The kit included a catalog/instruction booklet, etching pencil, paint pallet, plus wooden plaques with images of the characters to be used for wood-burning and painting. The vertical pieces measure 3.5" x 5" x .125" thick. The horizontal is 7" x 5".





A finished plaque.
