The Meeker Company of Joplin, MO. is a great midwest leather goods maker spaning the period 1908-1959. This design has aspects of Art Deco in the tooled design but the size, shape and limited use of metal and nylon lining inclines me to a date during in WWII.

A Meeker pocket mirror is included and abides in its own leather edged open pocket. The 1" wide leather handle pivots on decorative metal studs.
