Cool old dynamite box. That would be a very unique thing to be lying around your house. I wonder how many peps would freak when they saw that one.

The mines from where it came from were in use from the 20's until the late 50's. I found this in an old storage building when I was a kid in Alabama, probably around 1974 or 75. I would say from the age of other stuff that was stored in there, it dates to the late 40's, but that is just a guess.
