Russell & Morgan Co embossed tuck for Cabinet

[Chuqii]

This is one I've never come across before.  c1890 this is a Russell & Morgan Co. tuck box.  The only other Russell & Morgan Co. boxes I've ever seen were the telescoping boxes.  Interesting leather grain embossing.  Anyone else ever seen one of these?

Found a mention of the "fine imported leatherette boxes" in an 1892 US Printing Co price list.

I shall contribute two photographs of the front and back of two of my Cabinet alligator-textured tuck boxes, one of which is printed in silver (plain edges) and the other in gold (gold edges). What the viewer probably cannot see from my photographs is that each OB has a slightly different texture. Your back design is called "Forest" and my gold-edged example has a back design entitled "Water Lilies" (please see 3rd photograph).
