A real dictionary with room for more than words! This extra-large book safe offers a discreet place for valuables, blending naturally into a bookshelf or home library.
Condition note: The previous owner's address on the inside cover has been covered with black marker. The first page has handwritten notes in pen, including a reference to pages 1280 and 1288, along with other writing. The number 982 is written on the back of the first page. These markings do not affect the book's purpose as a book safe.
This meticulously handcrafted book safe is made from a real copy of Webster's New World Dictionary of American English, Third College Edition. Its familiar reference-book appearance keeps your storage unobtrusive, while the generous hollow provides a convenient home for prized possessions.
This Third College Edition brings the familiar look of a substantial reference dictionary to your shelf. Repurposed as a book safe, it offers a hiding place behind an everyday book cover.
Carefully handcrafted from a real book, this sturdy dictionary safe combines practical storage with the familiar feel of a home-library reference volume.
