The following pages give some idea of the path taken by the box from it’s inception to it’s current state. The sources we have researched include both published works and talking to people who worked in the box and those who remember it for other reasons. If you have any memories of the box or other memorabilia we would very much like to talk to you, please contact  our archivist, Allan Vigar, either by clicking this link or via our “Contact Us” page.
