This is a lovely old box. I don't think of myself as superstitious, but even I would probably hesitate before buying a property with the number 13. Crazy, isn't it?
I don't think the number 13 is unlucky, but most buildings in Montreal de not have a 13th floor and I will have to check, but I don't think there is an apartment No. 13 in my building!
Unlucky perhaps?
Quaint old box, I wonder where it comes from - switzerland perhaps?
ReplyDeleteDid you know most hotels don't have a 13th floor button in their elevators?
ReplyDeleteNew houses in the UK no longer have a No.13. Women will not buy a house with that number. Some amend the number to 12 & a half!
ReplyDeleteI wonder where this box came from? I love the look. Many buildings in the States do not have a 13th floor.
ReplyDeleteI never believed in any of that triskadekaphobia voodoo, and never will (touch wood).
