38-40		Winchester. Black Powder "Winchester '73" box, ca 1900. Note side-label calls out Model 1892 (and 1885 single-shot) as well but this caliber, unlike the 44-40 boxes, never had rifle pics on the side label. Labels are exceptional, both top and side-seal have great color and are 99% complete! Great display box for ANY of the 3 models!	$550 sold
44-40		U.S. Cartridge Co. Colorful and very scarce High Velocity labeling but RARE in this Full Metal Jacket loading! Ctdgs appear all native to the box and are exceptionally clean as well! Nice!!	$395 sold
44-40 (SEALED)		Winchester. This is one of the best known and most collectible of all cartridge boxes: the Black Powder "Winchester '73" box featuring a full-length picture of the rifle on the front edge. (Many have the pic on the back edge making it far less diplayable). Further, it doesn't have any of the 1/4" round, crate-rubbed white spots commonly found on labels of this vintage--both labels are 99.9%! And -- it's SEALED!	$895 sold
44-40		Winchester. This full-cover 2-pc Smokeless Powder JSP box is ca early-1920s. It is also the last iteration of Winchester's 2-pc (lift-off top) boxes. By 1928 most of the Company's offerings were in "1-pc" boxes (flaps & inner trays, clearly 2-pcs but 1-pc is what they're called!). A couple minor scuffs but nothing serious. Ammo all correct with the classic "WRACo .44 W.C.F." headstamps.	$450 sold
45 Colt		Winchester. Ca early-'20s, this was Winchester's last offering in .45 Colt in a Black Powder loading and 2-pc boxes. (see comments in 44-40 listing above re box types). Solid box full of correct ctdgs but the label appears to have a "cut or scratch" from top to bottom beginning above the final E in "WinchestEr", through the T in "Colt" and the bullet nose, and passing thru the E in "HavEn". The scanner highlights it all out of proportion to its in-hand appearance where it's barely noticeable, certainly nothing like how the picture accentuates it. I'll make this offer: If you buy it and don't like it, send it back (as received, in its shrinkwrap) for full refund--I'll send you the UPS label for the return so all you'll have to do is hand it to a driver!	$495 sold
	11/15/24
218 Bee (Bargain Bin)		Western Super-X, 50 clean ctdgs in a lousy box. Cheap!	$100
22 RF Extra Long		Swiss (partial) box of 42 clean ctdgs, thought to be the last made anywhere in the world in this long-obsolete caliber!	$85
250-3000 Savage		Western Super-X. This is the "true" .250-3000(fps) loading with the hard-to-find 87 gr bullet!	$75
357 Maximum (Scarce 180 gr.)	[End flap]	Remington. NOS boxes (have 3) of this scarcer 180 gr loading in this now obsolete caliber.	$50
41 Short Rimfire		U.S. Cartridge Co. Early/mid-1880s box containing 30 original ctdgs. Side-seal label approx 95%. Great box, perfect for display with one of those early derringers!	$350
9m/m RF Shot (Flobert)		H. Utendorffer (bought by RWS in 1889!), German mfg of this popular rimfire shot loading in an extremely colorful and ornate labeling with gold-on-red graphics--(hope you can see it well on your computer). No splits or repairs, NICE!	$175 sold
401 WSL (Win M1910)		Peters. Colorful, displayable box containing 14 native rds plus 6 Rem rds	$80
401 WSL (Win M1910)		Remington. DogBone box with one mouse-gnawed corner but full of its original ctdgs.	$70
401 WSL (Win M1910) [Bargain Bin]		Remington. Rough DogBone box with mouse-gnawed corner and missing a bit of cardboard at right end. Contains 13 "WRACo" (Winchester) rds w/ brass primers + 4 Rem & 3 Western rds with nickel prs. CHEAP!	$40
	10/25/24
.45 "Revolver Ball", 1877		Frankford Arsenal. Dated 1877, this is the .45 Colt (& Schofield) packet of the Benet-primed cartridges shipped from the arsenal to the troops from 1875 to 1882. A far rarer date than the 1878 packet, this example is still sealed with correct drawstring placement and none of the typical seam separations!	$525 sold
	10/24/24
38 Long Colt Rare 1880s Headstamp: "US 38 Army"	(click to enlarge)	U.S. Cartridge Co. "Colt's New Army Revolver". Ca. mid-1880s, the cartridges in this box are all headstamped with the desirable, "US 38 Army". To the best of my knowledge, the headstamp "38 Army" exists on no other cartridge! Nor did it last long on cartridges by USC in this or any succeeding labeling! Although there's a barely noticeable trace of tape removal the box is tight with a complete side-seal label and cartridges all appear native. Seldom offered or even seen--a RARE box!	$500 sold
	10/12/24
225 Winchester		Winchester. Introduced in 1964, Winchester no longer produced guns in .225 caliber after 1971. As a result the ammo is seldom encountered and when found is typically over $100/box! This is only the 2nd time I have offered this caliber since 1992--have 4 boxes and am offering these at only...	$85
6 m/m Remington		Remington. 1960s, 100gr Ptd SP. As new factory (NOS) ammo & boxes.	$42.50 sold
	10/7/24
22 Savage H.P. (5.6x52R)		Norma (Sweden). Clean, 71 gr JSP loading. Norma is often said to be the "World's standard" for ammunition.	$85
25 L RF Stevens		Canuck (Canadian Inds. Ltd). Ca 1970. (Have several)	$165
	9/30/24
310 Cadet		Kynoch. This scarce loading is one of the few Brit calibers I get calls for. The box has transparent tape over the left end flap and a small tape removal "scar" over the right, neither very distracting (see pic), but ctdgs are all clean & native to the box. The box itself is very solid and unrepaired and exhibits great colour (sorry, just couldn't help myself) ! Also, it has an internal cartridge tray with dividers so that the ctdgs are never in contact with one another. Interesting and seldom seen!	$150
	9/26/24
30-'03 [Bargain Bin]		Winchester. This "Gov't"cartridge was chambered in only ONE Winchester rifle: the Model 1895. I often get calls for boxes in this very scarce and long obsolete caliber but it's very seldom that I can help these folks. So it is with this realization that, with some temerity, I list this original Winchester box containing but ONE cartridge in the hope that some collector will be thankful to find even this humble box for his display. The bottom ends have the usual separations (easily repairable) but the box is basically sound (though perhaps in need of some gentle wiping or cleaning). The ctdg is quite nice with but one spot of staining but no corrosion or neck splits. [The lower label in the photo is near the bottom of the back side.]	$75 sold
	9/25/24
7x61 m/m Sharpe & Hart (7x61 Super)		Norma. Now rare in this, its original factory loading, the cartridge was developed and originally loaded in Europe but never gained much traction in the U.S. Have 2 loadings with this same box graphic (both flaps w/ loading data pictured); priced the same, your choice: 5 boxes "160 gr Soft Point Semi Pointed BoatTail", and 2 boxes "154 gr S.P. Spire Point".	$60
7x61 m/m Sharpe & Hart (7x61 Super) [Bargain Bin]		Norma. As above: Now rare in this, its original factory loading, the cartridge was developed and originally loaded in Europe but never gained much traction in the U.S. These boxes together contain 26 orig rds + 14 fired brass, the top box pictured being full but with loose flaps, the lower box missing the right flap.	$50
	9/23/24
218 Bee		Winchester. Super Speed, ca 1962-66. Box is dirty but tight, ammo EXC! Getting VERY hard to find!	$135
218 Bee [Bargain Bin]		Two full boxes (100 rds, total) of factory-loaded, clean cartridges--but mixed headstamps, as follows: 1 box Remington Hi-Speed with 46 orig (R-P) rds + 4 Win SuperSpeed rds. Also, 1 box Peters HighVelocity with 34 orig rds + 16 Win SuperSpeed rds.	2 boxes $200
358 Winchester		Winchester-Western, the scarce and most desirable 200 gr SILVERTIPS (not "Power Points"). The greatest fodder for those rare Winchester Model 88s and Model 70s--and the ammo's getting to be as rare as the guns!!	$95
	9/20/24
33 WCF (WIN)		UMC/Rem-UMC transition box, ca 1910-11. Interesting box with --all original--labeling calling out both UMC (1910 & earlier) as well as the combined Remington-UMC logo of 1911 on bottom ends. The cartridges, however, while factory-loaded are mixed; mostly being the much scarcer & earliest "UMC" headstamps with the "u" brass (denoting Smokeless) primers but also including similar ctdgs with the Rem-UMC headstamp. The latter, given the labeling, may or may not have been native to the box. There are also four slightly later (mid-'Teens) rds with nickeled primers. It's logical that such transition boxes such as this (in many other calibers and labelings) should exist but, though I've suspected a few others, this is the first of which I'm confident! [From my personal collection]	$125
33 WCF (WIN) [Bargain Bin]		Remington Kleanbore. Covered in tape, no flaps, mixed rds (some different headstamps) but all 20 are factory-loaded.	$65
33 WCF (WIN) [Bargain Bin]		Remington Kleanbore, ca 1950s. Rough box lacking both end flaps but full of correct, factory-loaded ctdgs.	$100, SHIPPED
	9/19/24
33 WCF (WIN) [Bargain Bin]		Remington Kleanbore, ca 1950s. Three full, original boxes of factory-loaded cartridges. The boxes aren't exactly collectible quality but the powder "shakes free" in the ctdgs. Take all 3 boxes for $287.50 INCLUDING shipping!	All 3: $287.50, SHIPPED !!!
33 WCF (WIN) [Bargain Bin]		Winchester. While missing its end flaps, this box is the colorful "1939" variety of the earlier "1935 Style". The back side has the same graphics as the front (pictured) but has writing and is missing a sliver (approx 3/16"x1") of cardboard at the right upper edge affecting neither text nor the black margin. The headstamp on the cartridges (all but one) are the early "WRACo 33 WCF". The exception is a rare filler mfd by Dominion of Canada and is headstamped "D.C.Co". CHEAP!	$85
33 WCF (WIN) [Bargain Bin]	[red/yellow box similar to below]	Mixed box w/ no flaps containing 19 VERY SCARCE "33 WCF USCCo " rds and one "D.C.Co 33 WCF" rd.	$90
33 WCF (WIN) [Bargain Bin]		Winchester. This is the last box graphic in which Winchester offered this caliber; called the "1946" style, it was discontinued in the early/mid-'50s. This box is missing both end flaps, however the cartridges are all factory-loaded and original and bearing the last headstamp: "WRA 33 Win". Like the Remington boxes above, it's not exactly collectible quality but the powder "shakes free" in the ctdgs.	$95
16 Gauge BRASS Primed Shells		Winchester. Full-cover, 2-pc box ca mid-1920s. Full of its clean, original "Primed BRASS Shells" with the headstamp: "WINCHESTER No. 16". Box is very solid and showing no signs of repair. Brass shells are RARE in 16 Ga! (Note: Primed Shells are NOT loaded loaded with shot or powder!)	$185
	9/11/24
38-55		Winchester-Western. Orig boxes of clean, factory-loaded NOS ("New Old Stock") ctdgs, have 6!	$67.50
	9/8/24
50-110 Winchester Express		Winchester. AS ABOVE EXCEPT DESIRABLE BLUE LABEL & NICER! One of the most collectible of all Winchester cartridges AND cartridge boxes, this is the Black Powder "Express" box intro'd in the late-1880s. Express cartridges all have the correct "raised X" on the copper tube in the nose of the bullet. [See Giles & Shuey, pg 160.] However this box has much less scuffing and NONE of the usual bottom end separations. Again, a great find for cartridge collector, cartridge box collector or Win M86 collector.	$1350 sold
50-110 Early Smokeless RARE Jacketed Hollow Points	[Photo'd in shrink-wrap]	Winchester. This very scarce blue labeling is earliest of the Smokeless loadings with the "47 grs Smkls Pwdr" callout, ca 1896-98 (see Giles & Shuey, pg. 161). Except for some normal "shelf-wear", the labels are complete and both of the desirable "Sunburst " labels are present, "Smokeless" on the front and "Soft Point Metal Patched" on the end. Most interesting, however, is the fact that the bullets in these early Smkls boxes were not simply Jacketed Soft Points, but were Jacketed HOLLOW Soft Points! Cartridges are clean & correct. A great find in this largest of Win M86 calibers. [This is only one of 3 such boxes I have had in 30+ years!]	$1150 sold
	9/6/24
44-90 "Creedmoor"		U.M.C. This is the 1870s label graphic ("prone shooter and Dog Logo") which I adapted over 30 years ago to highlight my business card! Box is full of correct catridges: Unheadstamped, ringed "balloon" heads; Berdan primed, with paper-patched bullets. A piece of history which remains my favorite box graphic of all-time, this box has been in my collection for over 30 years!	$950 sold
	8/30/24
22 Remington Auto		Remington. Scarce, early 2-pc box, ca 1920. Retains 42 corrrectly headstamped ("U") cartridges but missing side-seal label on one long side. (Full boxes of just non-collectible "shooters" in this caliber sell for $150-$200!!)	$75
	8/29/24
41 Swiss RF (Vetterli Rifle)		Winfield Arms, L.A. Calif, importer. Labeling of Leon Beaux mfr (Italy) and so headstamped. Thought to be the last made anywhere in the world!	$200
	8/22/24
50-110 Smkls JHP (Rare loading)		Winchester. This Jacketed Hollow Point loading in a Smokeless Pwdr box is RARE in any labeling; however, this is the only one I've ever seen in THIS labeling: "HOLLOW SOFT POINT" in red print on a stick-on lid-end label! Nine original cartridges (with the "W" primers denoting Smkls) remain. The box has no front label, apparently never has: all the labeling is on the lid-top and ends. Possibly one-of-a-kind, it's not in Giles & Shuey as I wasn't aware of its existence until it was found in the now-famous Reichenbach* collection! *Bob Reichenbach was a life-long Winchester employee and ammo collector. Having long since retired and now passed away, his immense collection had lain dormant for a number of years. His widow began disposing of the collection only about 2 years ago and now she, too, has passed on. The sale of the collection has only recently been completed.	$450 sold
50-110 Smkls JHP (Rare loading)		Winchester. This Jacketed Hollow Point loading in a Smokeless Pwdr box is very RARE; in fact, this is only the 2nd I've ever seen and the only in this labeling. Note the end sticker label "HOLLOW SOFT POINT" in red print! Nine original cartridges (with the "W" primers denoting Smkls) remain. The box has no front label, apparently never has: all the labeling is on the lid-top and ends. Possibly one-of-a-kind, it's not in Giles & Shuey as I wasn't aware of its existence until it was found in the now-famous Reichenbach* collection! *Bob Reichenbach was a life-long Winchester employee and ammo collector. Having long since retired and now passed away, his immense collection had lain dormant for a number of years.

22 Cal. Daisy VL Caseless Ammunition		Daisy/Heddon. During 1968-69, Daisy, America's best-known "BB-Gun" manufacturer, produced a rifle that fired these caseless cartridges that no primer or case but propelled a 29gr .22 bullet (same as a standard .22 S or L) at 1150 fps. The BATF, however, demanded Daisy become licensed as a firearms manufacturer (rather than airguns) and Daisy was reluctant to take that step and exited the business, opting and return to making and marketing their line of famous BB guns. The ammo came packaged in 100-rd strip packs, 10 packs to a "brick". And offered here is the opportunity to buy a quantity of the fast-disappearing ammo for these seldom seen, now "Curio & Relic", little guns!	Case of 5 1000 rd bricks $350 Brick of 10 100 rd bxs $75
	8/14/24
44 XL Shot		Peters. Thought to be ca. mid-'Teens, this 2-pc "Semi-Smokeless" box is full of properly headstamped ctdgs albeit some have nickeled primers and some copper. The paper sabots containing the shot are all tight--very unusual, as these are fragile and most often found partially split or even open (or worse). This is the first box I've ever had by Peters and only the 2nd by any maker in the past 5 years (or longer)!	$465
	8/14/24
45 "Revolver Ball" (Colt & Schofield)		Frankford Arsenal, 1878. Sealed packet of 12 ctdgs with none of the commonly found edge-splits/repairs, repairs which are often found with the pull-string misplaced when repaired and re-sealed. This one is guaranteed to be totally original!	$425
	8/13/24
22 Win Auto		Western "Bullseye" box, Olin Inds, ca 1950. Minty!!	$60 sold
	8/12/24
22 Win Auto		Old Western Scrounger. The first of the re-issue runs in this popular but obsolete caliber designed for the Winchester M1903.	$45
22 Win Auto		Old Western Scrounger. As above, but a group of 8 boxes, INCLUDING SHIPPING!	$375
22 Win Auto		Remington. The last of the commercial runs by one of the original manufacturers, ca 1970s. (Have 4) (Photo'd in shrink-wrap)	$55
22 Win Auto		MIXED. Remington boxes containing clean, late, Western "Lubaloy" ctdgs. (HAVE 2) (Photo'd in shrink-wrap)	$45
	7/22/24
45 Colt & Schofield		Frankford Arsenal, 1879, Schofield & Colt. The last year of the early style, coated/shellacked boxes. Much less common than the 1878 packets. The label is not well-centered (laps over front edge). Otherwise nice--sealed, clean and tight!	$365 sold
	7/10/24
22 Rem Auto Hol Pt (Rem Model 16)		Peters. A very scarce caliber by an obsolete maker is enough to make this a very desirable and collectible box even ignoring the fact that it's in the RARE Hollow Point loading! PCC-8 RA-2, it also remains FACTORY-SEALED! If you're not familiar with the gun, only about 17,700 guns were ever produced by Remington (1916-1928) and the cartridge was unique, not interchangeable with ANY other caliber. As a result it became obsolete very quickly and rare eventually--this variety being among the very rarest! [From my personal collection. Photo'd in shrink-wrap.]	$250 sold
22 Rem Spl (WRF) "Silvadry"		Remington. The desirable "Silvadry" in the RARE standard velocity loading--(the "Hi-Power" loading, while still quite scarce, is far more common). While the box shows some minor shelf-wear/handling, flaps and seams are tight and cartridges are all original and appear native to the box. REM-7.3 WRF-1a. [From my personal collection. Photo'd in shrink-wrap.]	$185 sold
	7/3/24
45 Auto (ACP) Scarce 200 gr		Remington-UMC. This is the scarce 200 gr bullet loading as originally cataloged for the Colt Model 1905 (but, like the much more common 230 gr, was--and still is in several different forms--also functional in the M1911). While the side-seal remains intact along the back edge and left end the seal is split on the front edge and right end leaving it approximately 90% complete. That said, the box is not, and annot, be opened; hence, it remains factory-sealed!	$285 sold
	6/28/24
"Super-X 6 m/m Win" Experimental		Winchester-Western. Experimental cartridges headstamped "Super-X 6 m/m Win". From the Dan Shuey collection, obtained by Dan from one of Winchester's East St Louis factory employees. The plain 2-pc box shows specifics of the loading hand-written in pencil--there is nothing else whatsoever on the box! Rare, if not unique!	$325
224 Winchester (Experimental)		Winchester-Western Div, Olin Inds. This RARE box of 1958 experimental cartridges is headstamped "WCC 58" and is in perfect condition. (From the Bob Reichenbach collection.)	$135
30-30 Short Range (1890s)		U.M.C. Here's a RARE one: UMC's first 30-30 labeling in the seldom seen Short Range ("Up to 75 Yards") loading. Thought to be ca 1896-'97, it also has the big "Smkls Reloading Caution" label on the back. Exceptional condition in all respects, this one, like the listing below, is from my personal collection.	$235 sold
30-30 FMJ (1890s)		U.M.C. Another early & RARE one: FACTORY-SEALED late-1890s box in the especially desirable "Metal Cased Bullet" (FMJ) loading. These early UMC boxes in 30-30, especially in this condition, are exceptionally rare! And, like the listing above, this box is from my personal collection.	$250 sold
38-55 "Winchester High Velocity"		Western. Only around for a few years during the Depression, this early "High Velocity" labeling is rarely seen! It was only loaded in TWO calibers, this and 30-30, and it should be noted that, oddly enough, the headstamps are not stamped "HV" on the cartridges of either caliber. A very scarce, little known and highly collectible variety of these iconic Model '94 calibers!	$195
41 Long Colt		Western. Full, early/mid-'60s box of the so-called "gold bullet" (Lubaloy) rds. Box is all there but shows some wear, ctdgs are nice!	$200 sold
	6/22/24
"Caliber .30 Blank Ctdgs, Model of 1909" / "For Model of 1903 Rifle"		Frankford Arsenal. This SEALED box measures only 4-7/8" x 2-5/8" and has significant weight. That's all I can tell you except that it's in EXC condition and I've never seen another. Will wait for you military collectors to bail me out here...	$85
	6/19/24
7 M/M Mauser		U.M.C. This "set" includes (top pic) a full box of the 175 gr FMJ ctdgs (in absolutely like-new condition!) as well as 2 empty boxes: lower left box has an over-label/sticker, "Pointed Bullets" and lower right box is double-stickered "Blanks" / "Black Powder". All are very solid--in perfect condition with perfect labels. (From the Reichenbach collection)	$95 sold
	6/18/24
22 Short		UMC. Ca 1880, full, early loose-pack (not "heads & tails" arrangement in alternate rows). UMC-2 S-4a. Side-seal label approx 90% and box integrity is EXC!(Color is nicer in hand than in pic.) Great box, nearing 145 years old!	$175 sold
	5/25/24
22 LR Hol Pt Lesmok RARE!!		UMC. VERY RARE BOX! Similar to REM-9 LR-9 but NOT listed in Dunn or Huegel! Full of correct, original ctdgs but missing side-seal label. [Are there any others out there? Please be in touch if you have one!]	???
222 Remington Magnum	(Pix of end labels)	Remington. Another of those calibers that's getting hard to find simply as "shooters"! (Have 2 )	$75
6 m/m Remington		Peters, ca 1960s. Scarce caliber in a scarce box by a now-obsolete maker! EXC!	$95 sold
348 Win.		Winchester, "Browning M71 Commemorative", 200 gr Silvertip loading, ca 1990s. EXC! Getting hard to find as "shooters"!	$160 sold
	5/24/24
22 WRF		Montgomery Ward's "CleanFire", ca 1930s, scarcer variety with "Cadmium Plated" blacked out on front side: MW-30 WRF-4b. EXC cond, all original, NICE!	$95 sold
41 Short Rim Fire		Western, this 100+ year-old 2-pc box is in the early and desirable "Red Diamond" logo and graphic box...AND IT'S SEALED! [From my personal collection]	$325 sold
41 Long Colt		Remington "DogBone" box in the desirable 41 Colt loading. As clean as you're likely to find in this box and caliber! [From my personal collection]	$225 sold
32-20 Win H.V.		Western, Super-X. Ca 1950, this VERY SCARCE labeling is the "Winchester High Velocity" 80gr Open Point Expanding loading and is out of an original 5-box "brick". AS NEW, and RARE in this condition!!	$175
32-20		Winchester-Western, 100 gr JSP. Getting very hard to find as just "shooters"!	$120 sold
	5/11/24
454 Casull 335 Gr Flat Pt.		Cor Bon, 20-rd box. The heaviest bullet you can get in this potent caliber: "335 gr Hard Cast FP" (Flat Point), loaded by a highly-respected "boutique" manufacturer. (Have 2)	$40 sold
	5/9/24
25-20 WHV		Western. "Winchester High Velocity" 60 Gr JHP. This is an early (1930s) Bullseye box missing its right flap. Also, while the cartridges are all 60 gr JHP, they're not all matching. Still, if everything were correct, this would be a $200 box (at least).	$120 sold
25-35		Remington. Pre-War/WW2 "R-Code" Kleanbore box (last of the R-code boxes). Minty! Seldom seen this nice!	$95 sold
300 Savage		Remington. Partial box of 19 very clean 180 gr Ptd Soft Points.	$40
357 Maximum		"Miwall", quality loading in new R-P brass using the scarce 180 gr JHP loading. If you're gonna hunt with it, this is the one you need!	$95
	5/8/24
38-55 Winchester Horse & Rider		Winchester-Western in the desirable Horse & Rider box!	$90

22 LR Std Velocity Silvadry		Remington. REM-7.3 LR-1, the Standard Velocity SILVADRY loading is quite RARE, a truly under-rated issue! Had 4 boxes from a partial brick in 2008: kept 1, sold 3--all for around $300 apiece. This is the only one I've seen since and it's just as nice!	$300
218 Bee		Western Super-X, full & correct, ca 1960s. Getting very hard to find even as just "shooters"! [Photo'd in shrink-wrap]	$115 sold

	4/15/24
44-40 Little Big Horn Commemorative	[Pls read description]	Winchester. This great box is printed on a reflective silver coating that renders it impossible to scan with any clarity. Can send photos if you're interested or if you're not familiar with the graphic which shows gold-tone cameo-sized images of Custer on one side and Crazy Horse on the other. It's a box of 20 ctdgs in 2 rows of 10: 6"long x 2"wide x 1-1/4"high. In the opinion of many it's the most desirable of the entire series of commemorative boxes; unfortunately, nearly all such boxes show significant flaking, scratching, rubbing, etc. So, in spite of this box's infinitesimal imperfections, very, very few have survived as nice as this and I've not found one nicer--and that includes the one in my personal collection! I doubt "perfection" exists in any of these.	$195 sold
44 XL Shot		Winchester. Full, solid & original, this is a mid/late-1920s Blk Pwdr box of .44 XL #8 Shot ctdgs all of which appear to be in nice original condition with shot sabots intact (a rarity!). First full box of 44 XL I've had in years!	$495 sold
22 LR		Remington. Why bother to show a box like this?? Good question, actually, as it's rough and has only 18 rds. BUT: It's the FIRST Dogbone box (1926, note the absence of the R-code); Note that it's a Hollow Point loading; Note the graphic format of "Hollow Point" above & below the logo, not within; Note all the ctdgs have an impressed "S" (denoting Smkls) near the case mouth; Note that it's only......	$25 sold
30-30		Winchester. Ca 1906, the 1st year of label-dating, this is Type 2, Var 4 labeling (Giles & Shuey, pg 175). Shows minor wear but the box remains tight and unrepaired with all its original ctdgs. These early boxes getting very hard to find!	$185 sold
30-30		Winchester. Ca 1915, 1st year of the folded construction boxes, this is Type 3, Var 1 (SP). Ctdgs are all original and among the last years to exhibit the "protected primers". While not sealed, the condition is EXC in all regards.	$225 sold
303 Savage		Peters. The so-called "salmon" (colored), JSP labeling. While the ctdg heads (only) appear to have been cleaned, the 2-pc box itself is extraordinarily clean and in EXC+ condition!	$165
32 S Colt		Winchester. Ca 1911, this Blk Pwdr loading and labeling is not often found this late, but is especially not found in this condition!! It's SEALED & MINTY!	$195 sold
351 WSL (Win M'07)		Remington Kleanbore, 180 gr JSP. All original, native-to-the-box ctdgs. I know this sounds ridiculous but this caliber is getting hard to find. I assume it's just being hoarded as there are a LOT of guns out there but the ammo has become obsolete.	$185
38 S Rim Fire		U.M.C. Ca 1890s, Blk Pwdr box, solid and unrepaired it's full of its original ctdgs; in fact, it appears the rds have never been out of the box! Ever!!	$195
38-55		Winchester. Despite lid-top and both end labels dated 10-6 this box has a primary (front) label dtd 1-12, so it must be considered to be a 1912 (or slightly later) box. This is not uncommmon as most boxes from this era had 4-6 labels but not usually 6 years difference among them. The box shows some scuffing and wear but shows no dents, splits or repairs and is full of correct, original ctdgs.	$125 sold
41 S Rim Fire		Remington. Early "Dogbone" box, late 1920s. Solid box with no flap or seam problems. Ctdgs appear native to the box. Nice, perfect for the later Remington Derringer!	$300
44 S&W Russian		U.M.C. Ca 1890s Blk Pwdr 2-pc box. Side-seal is approx 85% and all appears original and native to the box. A really nice, displayable example! (The bottom edge in pic is reflection, not edge rub.)	$375
44-40 Rare "Lesmok" Box		Remington-UMC, "split-logo" labeling, ca 1911-13. Lesmok was used by both Remington and Winchester in very few calibers other than the rimfires and a very few C.F. pistol/small-rifle calibers such as this. It was discontinued shortly after introduction, probably due to slow sales, both factors attesting and adding to the scarcity of Lesmok boxes. The box is solid in all regards and ammo appears all original. SCARCE!	$475 sold
45-70 FMJ (Bargain Bin)		Winchester. Early "green Smokeless" box with 8 original Full Patch (FMJ) ctdgs. Box is rough but all there; the very scarce FMJ cartridges, however, are worth the price!	$50 sold

45-70-405		Western "Bullseye" box, full of factory-headstamped ("Western 45-70 Govt.") 405 gr Jacketed Soft Point ctdgs. These boxes carrying heavy cartridges such as this are seldom found this nice with no splits or loose flaps!	$110 sold
45-70-405		Frankford Arsenal. "CARBINE BALL CARTRIDGES". Looks sealed but isn't, transparent tape over top ends. All correct orig ctdgs. CHEAP!	$100
45-70-500		U.M.C. Late-1890s Smkls loading in Military "string-pull" packaging. SEALED!	$185
45-70-405		Western "Red Diamond" 2-pc bx in RARE "NUBLEND PWDR" loading. As with Lesmok (used by Remington and Winchester) very few calibers other than the rimfires and some C.F. pistol calibers were loaded in Nublend. Unfortunately, while 14 rds are correct and native to the box, 6 are Rem-UMC "fillers". Still, this remains a desirable and very collectible box and labeling! [And CHEAP!]	$95
45-70-405 [Bargain Bin]		Winchester. Blk Pwdr 2-pc box, Orig ctdgs but box has taped end splits at both top & bottom as well as transparent tape along a couple other edges.	$65 Sold

30-30		Winchester. This one's not even in the book and the 30-30 chapter is thought to be the most complete of all the calibers: Type 2 box with a Variety 5 lid label and a Variety 6 front label! And it's SEALED! (Photo'd in shrink-wrap)	$285 sold
	3/13/24
28 Ga. 1st run. Dallas address, Very Rare!!		Bismuth Cartridge Co. Error box: top shows "Premium Target Load" but front says "Premium Upland Game Load". I personally bought these directly out of the store-room of their Dallas executive offices in the 1990 and was told that this was only a trial run and only 10 boxes were made. To my knowledge they never went forward with it.	$185
.410 1st run. Dallas address, Very Rare!!		Bismuth Cartridge Co. I personally bought these directly out of the store-room of their Dallas executive offices in the 1990 and was told that this was a trial run and only 20 boxes were made. They are somewhat over-sized and this box was rejected.	$165

38 S&W		Winchester (1962-66) & Remington (1970?), 2 partial boxes of clean, like new cartridges: 48 Win and 40 Rem, total of 88 ctdgs.	$160
32 Short Colt		Western "Bullseye" box, ca early-1950s, Olin Inds, EXC condition, at today's "shooter" price! [From the Reichenbach collection]	$150 sold
32 Short Colt		Winchester. Scarce, late Black Powder loading, 2-pc FACTORY-SEALED box, ca 1910-11. Virtually NEW! [From the Reichenbach collection]	$165
22 LR WIMBLEDON MATCH RARE!		Peters. WIMBLEDON MATCH. One of the most desirable loadings in Peters' rich legacy of collectible .22 boxes! Only around during the mid-1930s Depression years, this premium loading was not sold in great quantities. Dunn: PCC-53 LR-2c, BUT rather than the Dunn-listed gold print description re boxes having the "C" bottom, this one has the earlier "gold-leaf" type coloring! The box shows some "smudges" but has no splits, flap problems or repairs. This is only the 3rd Wimbledon box I have offered in 32 years and the ONLY one of this unlisted variety! (From my personal collection) [Photo'd in shrink-wrap]	$395 sold
380 Automatic (ACP)		Western "Bullseye Box". Olin Inds, K-Code, 1945-'50. EXC cond. [From the Reichenbach collection]	$75
30-40 Krag (30 US Army)		CIL -- see description previous listing	$95
303 British		CIL -- see description previous listing	$85
44 Bull Dog Blanks		UMC. A solid box with a great label containing 39 (of 50) original blank ctdgs, headstamped: "UMC .44 B Dog". ALL Bull Dog boxes are RARE and desirable! [From the Reichenbach collection]	$95
310 Skeet (RF Shotshells)		Remington. ".310 SKEET / SHOT GUN SHELLS", Rim Fire, "For use in (RARE) .310 Skeet Remington Shotgun", 250-box, mfd for a mini-shotgun that Remington imported from Brazil in the 1960s for amusement park type "clay-bird" shooting. Never a success, both the guns and the cartridges are rare. I didn't count the ctdgs but the back edge remains sealed and the box feels quite full. [Photo'd as wrapped in plastic.]	$300 sold
45 Auto (ACP)		Remington. Very scarce 1921/22 "Successors to" box, the transition labeling between "Remington-UMC" and Remington Arms Co, Inc". Side-seal recommendation has the Colt signature logo as well as the desirable Rampant Colt. Solid box w/ no repairs and all native-to-the-box ctdgs.	$150 sold
32 Auto (ACP)		Western Ctdg Co. Forty-two original rounds remain in this 2-pc box from the early-'Teens, a seldom-seen Soft Point loading in an Automatic pistol caliber. Western boxes from this period are scarce enough in their own right but quite rare in auto-caliber Soft Point. The box is solid with no repairs and actually remains sealed along the front long edge. Clean, nice! [From the Reichenbach collection]	$60 sold
35 S&W Auto		Remington-UMC. Developed for the Smith & Wesson Model 35 (sometimes called the Model 1913, the year in which it was introduced), S&W's entry into the semi-auto pistol market wasn't very successful: It lasted only 9 years and sales averaged fewer than 1,000 guns a year. The caliber, while titled ".35 S&W", differed only slightly from the .32 ACP; in fact, the similarity was such that the Colt caliber functioned very well in the M35 and was cheaper. So there are 3 significant reasons why this is such a seldom-seen caliber: First, it was only marketed for a few years; second, very few guns (all S&W M35s) were ever chambered for it; and, third, it was more costly than the alternative 32 ACP. This rare box remains FACTORY-SEALED and is in EXC condition! [From the Reichenbach collection]	$200 sold
32 S&W		Warner Arms (of Brooklyn), distributor, but mfd in Germany. Early 1/2-split style 2-pc box, thought to be late-1890s/1900. Side-seal label approx 95%. Interesting and CHEAP! [From the Reichenbach collection]	$50
38 S&W Spl Mid Range		Winchester. This was Winchester's "premium" target ammunition offering, ca 1914. The ctdgs (of which 17 remain) have the sharp-shoulder bullet and are packed individually in a specially constructed "divider" box (see pix). Scarce and CHEAP! [From the Reichenbach collection]	$95
25 S. Rim Fire		Winchester. This 1939-1944 war-time era 2-pc box appears sealed but upon close inspection it has been opened (with a razor?) at the left end. Unfortunately, the obvious label scratch makes this box available at the Bargain Bin price of...	$120
38 Long Rim Fire		U.S. Cartridge Co. Full of the desirable "raised US" headstamp rds this early Blk Pwdr 2-pc box shows no repairs and retains approx 95% of its side-seal label (although there's a 1"x 1/2" sticker on one end, "186").	$140
32 S&W SHOT!		Winchester. Rare "No. 12 Shot" loading, ca 1900. Labeling doesn't specify whether Smokeless or Blk Pwdr and is pre-1902 label color protocols so we can't tell, but guessing BP. Box has 30 original ctdgs and is unrepaired and solid in all respects. The labels are 93-94 % (the only label loss being at the bottom of the left end of the lid). As much an oddity as a rarity!	$95
25 Stevens RF Long (Bargain Bin)		Peters. While the box is missing one end flap and the other is pasted on, this remains a full box of clean ctdgs!	$145 Sold
32 Long Colt		Western "Bullseye" box, ca early '50s. Left flap taped on (internally) but all original, native to the box ctdgs with "gold" Lubaloy bullets in EXC+ condition! Very hard to find caliber!	$150
219 Zipper		Winchester. Scarce variety, 1959-61 (pre-Child Warning), the last "Pure Winchester" box (pre-"Winchester-Western" logo). MINTY!! Prices on these Winchester Zipper boxes have sky-rocketed these past 2 years!! [Photo'd in shrink-wrap]	$200
9 m/m Luger (ERROR box: ".9 m/m")		Remington, early 1-pc box, ca 1925. Cartridge title with erroneous decimal point in front of the nine: ".9 m/m"! Full of native-to-the-box ctdgs. Solid unrepaired box! Interesting and RARE! [Photo'd in shrink-wrap]	$125
38 S&W Special 200 gr. Super Police		Western. Ca 1962, these boxes are exceptionally scarce in this short-lived 200 grain Super Police loading! The ctdgs have the "gold" Lubaloy bullets and Nickeled cases. And while as NEW from an original case this box has a corner-crinkle at the bottom-right back corner. So, CHEAP:	$78.50
	EARLIER
455 Colt [Also 455 Eley, 455 Webley]		Dominion. The last loading (ca 1970) in this famous Brit caliber.	$135
303 British RARE		Winchester. While this box is a bit dark, it is solid, tight and unrepaired. Unfortunately, while all the ctdgs are headstamped "303 British", only ONE is correct and native to the box. Still, for Winchester rifle box collectors, especially Model 1895 collectors, I quote the following from Giles & Shuey, One Hundred Years of Winchester Cartridge Boxes, 1856-1956: "...there is probably no Winchester lever-action rifle caliber that is more elusive in ANY two-piece commercial box than the 303 British!" 'Nuff said!	$110
45-70 Shot		Peters. This RARE and early 2-pc box is thought to be ca 1899 and, as called out only by the end-label stickers, is in Peters' "newly-introduced" Semi-Smokeless powder loading. Also, the only "SHOT" callout is found on pasted-on stickers on the ends. The box is tight in all all respects with no repairs or problems. [From the Reichenbach collection]	$285
56-50 Spencer		[Boston Armory] Attractively housed in a hinged plastic case under a (loose) original label from a "No. 56" 42-box, this is an unmarked original 7-pk of un-headstamped ctdgs. The box itself is separated at the seams and the loose label does not, in my opinion, correspond with the 7-pk of cartridges. It is, however, in exceptional condition and, being of Civil War vintage, is of significant interest in its own right: "No. 56, Navy and Infantry Size. Armory,--Chickering's Bldg, Tremont St., BOSTON, U.S." A bit of U.S. history very reasonably priced!	$145
45 Colt & Schofield Blanks		Frankford Arsenal, "PISTOL CARTRIDGES", with "Oct 23 1882" date-stamped on side. This is the only year that these were called Pistol ctdgs rather than Revolver ctdgs; in fact, I've only ever seen 4 of these 1882 "Pistol" packets and they've all been dated during the 4th week in Oct of 1882! Very uncommon!	$150
30-30 FMJ [Bargain Bin]		Winchester. Full Patch (FMJ) loading, lbl-dtd 7-15, 9-16. Partial box of 13 native, original ctdgs, most which show some corrosion; however, the rds do have the desirable "protected primers", the last year in which those are to be found. The box is the main thing here of course: it's very solid with no stains, splits or repairs. Further, it's the very first variety of the Type 3 box in Giles & Shuey (pg 176, T-3 V-1). A very nice display box, cheap!	$125 sold
38 Colt Special		Winchester. Popular "1932" style box in EXC condition with no splits or repairs. Cartridges all correct and appear native. This is one of those calibers that Winchester tried to turn into a proprietary caliber. The only difference between this and 38 S&W Special is the flat-nose bullet, the cartridges are interchangeable. But Winchester tried to capture the Colt owners by calling it the .38 Colt Special and listing the Colt Army Special, Colt Police Positive Special and Colt Officer's Model (as well as the S&W ) on both the top & side labels. Interesting and somewhat historical.	$125 sold
30-'06 280gr Experimental		Remington. Contract experimental box of a 280-Grain SP loading, the heaviest I've ever heard of in this iconic caliber! Must not've worked out too well--never heard from again! Clean ctdgs, headstamped "REM-UMC .30 SPRG". RARE!	$125 (reduced) !
