Home made cylinder box

A little while ago I posted about purchasing a large amount of brown wax records. It turns out that 42 of them are blanks. There were many other ones in the box including three 3" brown wax records. I am posting pictures of the home made box that they all came in. Someone was very handy re-using a crate from Quaker Oats. I know there are a few sleuths among us that might be able to determine an approximate age of the wood panels used to make the crate. The box and all of the records and most of the parts that came in this purchase will be available at the Midwest Music Expo coming up in a couple of weeks.
