Interesting ammo box. "Air Service" may be the reason why. A wood 20 round wood box is a bit different from what I'm used to seeing. Wonder what the "10" means in the corner of the label?

I got a wartime wooden crate of ammo once. The ammo inside came in small batch stiff paper boxes. Think each packet probably was of 20 rounds.

Hi Niner,

i got this label from Google Pictures and use it for my Cartridge Box.
The 10 at the edges seems to me for 10 Rounds each Paperpacks

Due to the fact that i found no common Plastic case with Bullet up separation in try to use this wooden Box
Basicly it is a commercial sold box for Eau de toilette from R.S.V.P

it holds 60 Rounds

regards
Klaus
