Was cleaning the reloading bench and found these in an old coffee can. They are plastic, so not super old, but as a child I always liked this box the best. Anyone else have old boxes of shells?

I'll figure out how to post pictures but I have 5-6 boxes of older federal paper shells, which match up with with my grandfathers Winchester pump (~1950).

I found a bunch of my granddad's old 12ga shell boxes. I cleaned them up, broke them down and packed them away in the wife's cedar chest. I hope she doesn't toss them while cleaning some day.
They were alot neater back then than now.
I did my shop in old metal tins I find here and there, usually in back country antique stores or estate sales.
I wish I would have been born 60 yrs earlier some days, This era is great for technology, but sucks for collecting, everything is quick printed on poster board, not metal.
