Kynoch 38 S&W Proof Box

Thought you may be interested in this Kynoch 38 S&W Special proof box. It is interesting because the over-label on the back indicates the rounds are made from Swedish components. The box was loaded on 24 Aug 1969. I have a 9mm Para box by Kynoch from about 1974 or a year or two earlier (I got it in 1974 and it was current shooting ammo at the time) and printed on the back is

"MADE IN ENGLAND"
"FROM SWEDISH COMPONENTS"

Cheers,
Lew

PS: Wish I had a Kynoch 9mm Luger Para proof box with these purple markings. Has anyone ever seen one?
