A little piece of history with a secret of its own!
Dating back to 1909, this special vintage copy of My Book of Best Stories from History has been carefully upcycled into a hollow book safe.
The beautifully illustrated cover and spine feature Joan of Arc, giving the book plenty of vintage character. But there's an extra surprise inside: the hollowed-out compartment features an original image from the book depicting Joan of Arc. It's a lovely way to preserve a little piece of the book's history while giving it a new purpose.
Perfect for displaying on a bookshelf, this book safe looks like an old history book but has a hidden space for keeping little treasures, keepsakes and personal belongings out of sight.
