Old leather cap box

[JustKeepDigging]

Picked it up at a garage sale, I know it's an old cap box but not sure how old it is. Anyone have an idea? I can make out "Wilkinson MASS"

I don't recall ever seeing Artillery Crossed Cannons (covering leather ID) or company name on back of a musket cap pouch. I have a feeling it is aged but was used for reenactments - I am sure if I am wrong a member will correct me (it happens all the time!).

pics of the inside and of how the insignia is attached would be helpful

I find it strange that the crossed cannons are covering a oval makers mark. Clearly not the intention of the manufacturer to cover that area.

Here's a pic of one with a cannon on the flap. I'm not sure if it's fake or not...... https://www.google.com/search?q=art...KHeGGDgsQsAQIHQ&dpr=0.9#imgrc=vCpyphtJuz1v-M:
