Antique 38-40 Ammo

Winchester Brand

Circa 1895

This is an OPENED, antique 38-40 ammo box with a full compliment of original cartridges. It’s a first issue, central fire, Winchester Brand box with “center fire” noted on the side labels, indicating a later version of the earliest 1880’s boxes.

It is in very good overall condition, showing the early “old time” graphics and a picture of a cartridge on the end of the box. The top green label shows one ¼” rub spot and edge wear, age soiling. Otherwise the top label is very good. All of the red side wrap is still intact with one side of the seal unbroken. The box is solid, showing no repairs what-so-ever.  Also, the reloading label on the inside of the lid is very good and fully readable.
