Good score. Those are harder to find than the tool that goes into them.

You can also see all the detail that goes into the rubber padding, the rivetting and even the pull tab.

funny things is that the box is dated 1941, and the rubber liner is dated 1942.

This is the loader that goes in the box. On a Mk1* it is located on top of the armoured battery box.
