This box came to me by way of a tag sale. Guy a little older than me was liquidating and moving from Nebraska to Phoenix. He had a better shop than most, and lots of his father and grandfathers tools. His grandfather was a machine shop operator, which explains why he purchased this box for his son. Inside is the label ( Green Toy Works, Racine, Wisconsin, U.S.A.) the tag is also dated, Nov.12, 1924, stock no. 70. I had admired this little box on a previous garage sale, but this time he had decided to trim things down for the move. I think I paid $15, it was empty, but the tag, date, and the story of his fathers toy tool box I think was worth it. I keep some antique woodworking things in it, seems appropriate, things that are used too. The box is wood, covered in tin, with a leather wrapped handle.
