I'm taking this opportunity to post a picture for the first time on the new site. I really like go-withs so I thought it was cool to find this box. Does anyone collect boxes of things like this? This one was damaged and over priced, but I really liked it.

A bit different box. Very nice. I own a couple, and find uses for them around the house. I think they add to my ink collection. Jim G

Yep, grab up every wooden box my Wife likes. I paid $125 for a small 1860s era Sewing Machine Oil box with a paper label but it's very graphic and there was lots of competition, I suspect cross category bidding.

I've seen hay, and I've seen little paper dividers. Of course, after all this time, it's hard to say... Elisha Waters, out of Troy, was so into cardboard packaging that his business ended up becoming about same. Jim G

I love boxes. I pick them up whenever the price is right. I don't buy too many bottles, cuz I can dig my own, but I can't dig boxes!
