DID YOU KNOW? A Lady's Own Toilet Pin Box is a turn-of-the-century tin container that held Women's Toilet Pins...Before the button became commonplace, many clothes were pinned together and a lady would have pins on her dressing table. The toilet pins come from an era when one would need a tin of pins to fasten clothes, hats, corsages,etc.
