not wooden, but someone could have ordered or bought one separate for their gun, but normally, the early model 581 had a two piece blue box , and soon after they were one piece , fold up boxes with the divider inside.........first labels on these were the regular white, written info , then they went to the computer generated ones...Have seen them BOTH ways

And it should have "A Bangor Punta Company" between Smith & Wesson and Springfield, Mass.
