    It is a nice box. Good way for box to get lost.

    I believe if the UPS guy dropped that off on the front porch, I would sure want to be home to get it.
    A box like that wouldn't stay on the porch very long in some parts of our town. A plain ordinary box would stand a better chance.

    The box is cool, as long as it isn't being dropped at the front door and left there for a few hours.

    In this day and age of doing the absolute minimum to save a tenth of a penny, it's nice to see someone who takes pride in their product, business, even their packaging.

    yes sir, I worked for a company that sold packaging materials, custom printed boxes add quite a bit of $$ at the end of the year

    I thought that Elmer's box was so cool, I sent a picture of it over to Cameron and suggested that Nystrom Performance should have some nice boxes. He sent me back a picture as his response.

    Y'all need to go to their website. If for no other reason than to peruse the pix of their builds.

    The thread title reminded me of a kool box I received once from @straykatkustoms Oh, and it just had a t-shirt in it. I can’t remember which shirt, but I do still have the box. :D

    The vote is in ! We as adults are just like kids at heart on Christmas morning, we would just as soon play with the box our toys came in, at least for a while !

    Always marveled at Bob Drakes packaging tape with a host of early Fords all in a row, his catalogs are works of art in living color as they say, with a keen eye for detail & bits of advertising nostalgia within...If it hasn't already been subject matter perhaps it's time to recognize those behind the scenes responsible for this & similar publications. And I agree that is a neat box, probably not too soon to be discarded.
