DuPont Explosives Wood Crate w/ Mason Jars

Updated September 17, 2026

DuPont Explosives Special Gelatin 40% Dynamite Wooden Shipping Crate with Two Antique Glass Canning Jars. Includes one antique DuPont Explosives wooden crate marked 50 LBS Special Gelatin 40% Strength Fume Class 1 with dovetail joints, plus one blue/aqua Ball-style mason jar with wire bail closure and one clear glass canning jar. Crate shows significant age-related wear, wood is dry with some splitting and staining. Green/blue text is faded but still legible on the end panels. Interior shows discoloration and residue. Mason jars are dirty but appear intact with no visible cracks. The crate alone makes a killer display piece for any Americana collector, and the mason jars are just the cherry on top. This description was assembled by AI, which has never been within 100 feet of actual dynamite. Check the photos, use your own judgment to figure out what is what, and remember everything is sold as-is.
