Wondering how rare and what the value would be of this shipping crate?

from Winchester repeating arms co New haven Conn. U.S.A

Shipped by American Express

To Detroit Mich.

 

My research puts it 1873 – 1890??

 

thanks

Don,

Without pictures we can’t tell you anything since there are more fakes than originals out there. A original crate is rare.

I remember that crate showing up a while back on this forum. I was not impressed with it.
