Found a two-piece blue box for S&W handcuffs....
Looks just like a gun box, except smaller. I thought it was kinda neat...never saw one before.

2. printed with model number
3. printed paper label pasted on upside down

If you want to move it I collect handcuffs.
Maybe we can swap. I have about 200 handgun boxes.

ditvette,
The box end is printed with model number...
SMITH & WESSON
REGULAR FINISH
NICKEL MODEL 90
End looks most like your #2 photo, but the top looks most like your #3 photo. It says Bangor Punta on the top. Instructions are printed on inside of lid.

Club Gun Fan,
Got a nice Model 58 box with no sticker or serial number?
That's about all I really need as far as boxes go....

G-Mac,
The model 90 was introduced in 1952 and I believe they were produced until the late 1970's. Maybe someone with more knowledge can give you a closer date on the box. I believe your box looks like this. (bad lighting, box is dark blue)

Dave,
Thanks for your efforts...that's exactly like the box I have. It was with a bunch of handgun boxes that I bought from a retired police officer.
