Dug out this old box at weekend from garage and gave it a clean, had this since I was school age, I remember picking it up out of some rubbish that had been put out for the dustman on way home from school, must have be around 1979 ish.
Been used for storage of all sorts over the years. at the time I found it I remember storing my Dinky, Corgi and Matchbox cars in it (I was 10 then).
Thought id post it here for all to see, stamped 288 CART .303 BALL Mk7 CTN ISA&A
faintly stamped RG 23/4/52. on top of box pressed into the wood is SV593A. On bottom 1952 and other that isn't legible.
Pic 1 after clean, pic 2 before.
All in all a tatty old wooden box, but very special to me, as its probably the thing I still own that i've had for the longest. :tinysmile_shy_t:
