The tools and spares box had 2 little corners left of a typed label which I think listed the contents of the box ,anybody know what was on the label ?
 
Nice boxes Dave. I have got one of the fuze boxes, very similar and rustic in construction. There was a tool box on ebay ages ago with a list on the lid.
