Here are some images of a M152 I mine box that I purchased on the weekend.

Hi Ed, good to see you here....glad you picked up a few items at the Ottawa show, bought a 12 pound and a 24 pound dug cannonballs.

Very slow show, I won't be doing that one again!!!

Hi Ed,
Nice Box. What is with the grey and black paint? Very nice markings though.
Cheers

M152 I Box

The show was okay for me as I live close, although as a rule, I never travel more than two hours for any show as I cannot justify the expenditure in time and fuel.

The black paint on the box was an attempt to cover over the labels and the grey an even lesser attempt to cover the stencils.

Another Mine Box

Recently I came to own a box similar to Ed's but without the M152 stamping in the lid. I'm assuming it's the same but correct me if I'm wrong. There is, what I'm guessing is a manufacturers stamp on the upper left part of the lid, that looks like ETC/C. Can anyone decipher this and tell me where it was made. Thanks.
