This box has been well-preserved and displays beautifully! There appear to be no repairs, tape, or writing on the interior. Of the eight corner seams (from the two-piece design where the lid fits over the bottom), seven are fully intact, with only one seam showing a split. The only writing visible on the box is a small "1950" written in pen. Additionally, we have custom-made Styrofoam inserts to keep the box square, sturdy, and intact, making it an excellent display piece!
