Default Exact size of box windows

For the historical record here are the exact measurements of the windows on the box . Original inscription found today while replacing a broken one . Also , it was dated 1/44 . Maybe it’s a seven so that would be 7/44 .

Default Trademark

Also found the Autolite trademark on the window ! It mentions it is safety glass like in the cars of the day . Two pieces of glass sandwiched together with a thin layer in between to prevent shards of glass injuring users .
