the Box craze and accessories

[AudieMurphy]

After reading many post on newly acquired pieces. I cant help but noticed theres a the movement growing on boxes and accessories. posters claiming they're looking for an origonal box, when in fact its a period correct box. BUT making it origonal to the gun , yea, making it origonal by adding a blank label to a period correct box and some pencil imagination....HUH! excuse me!! and adding "the" screw driver...But before they do that...they want to know if its the correct screw driver. OH, and dont forget the repo'd owners manual and reciept......whats next?

Sounds a bit like “Buy the gun, not the box, or the papers, or the SAT.”

Hey,
There’s some of us who would like to reproduce the “litter” that accompanied the way our guns left the Factory. It’s not an attempt to falsify the legitimacy of what is there, it only an attempt to satisfy what we would like to have.
Please be patient with us.
Thanks for your understanding and best to you.

It's no different than buying NOS body panels for a 1969 camaro, or replacement owner's manual or a FOMOCO approved repro window sticker for a 1970 Boss Mustang.

In fact, I have a 2007 Mustang, and my local Ford dealer looked my VIN up and he gave me a PDF of my exact window sticker for free. I printed and laminated it to go with my car paperwork.

Making a fake label on a box? No....
