This original vintage wooden shipping crate from the Atlas Powder Company of Wilmington, Delaware, offers a fantastic look at industrial history. The long side panels display clean, dark stenciling that reads Atlas Powder Co, Dangerous, alongside an authentic ICC fourteen shipping container stamp. One short panel is stamped with the recognizable company globe design, while the opposite end records original industrial lot information like fifty pounds and Exdyn. Built with solid wood planks and strong interlocking finger joint corners, this narrow rectangular box has a wonderful aged look with minor natural wear from authentic handling. It serves as an eye catching conversation piece for collectors of historic industrial advertising, mining memorabilia, or vintage rustic home decor. 31”w
