Default S&W Model 1 cartridge boxes

I didn't want to highjack the other thread, so I'm posting some pictures of some of my .22 BP boxes here.

Hey, Don, has anyone ever made a poster of those old ammo boxes. You know like the metal ones you see at gun shows of old advertising posters? If not, it might be a good way to make some money for the Historical Foundation.

Ed, back in the day, not having the money to buy high end guns, I took to buying catalogs and cartridge boxes. I had a dealer sell me a Hall & Hubbard box. He said I'd be sorry I didn't buy whatever S&W he was selling at that time. I'm still not sorry.

No, I'm not aware of any. Good idea. I don't know of who could do it.

If you are asking who makes the signs, I believe this place does:

Tin Signs - Wholesale Pricing, Free Shipping, Vintage Signs, Retro, and Nostalgic Tin Signs

Don, that is a first class collection of the old boxes. THANK YOU for sharing. Many of us will never get to see those in the flesh.
