Cno7 Transit Case Value?

[greyman441]

Can anyone tell me what a original condition Cno7 Transit case it worth? I picked these up while I was on vacation in down east and I would like to liquidate them?
Here are some pics, what would be a good value for each of them?

They are post war re-paints. Interesting stencil someone made for the lid of the first one......too much time on their hands I suspect. Price will depend on the interior's completeness. Bottom end for complete boxes these days is around $50, and will run up to about $125 for nice ones.

The insides are complete with the blocks and original felt. The ends of the boxes are stamped 1948 and 1949 also with C broad arrow.

you should post a picture of the inside, that would help.

I can't say I have ever seen a box with those dates. If the dates are correct, then I might have to take back my statement that they are post war repaints, as I have no knowledge as to what colour boxes would have been painted in that era.

Could you get a closeup of the dates and manufacturer's stamps on the end of the boxes? Also, a shot of the supply tag on the one end of the crate if it is readable.

Here is some pics. The tag last dated to 1972. I circled the dates and the C broad Arrow.

boxes are dated 1945 and 1946....nothing special.

Ya i thought it was 48 and 49 but i looked closer and saw it was 45 and 46.

The boxes are nothing special UNLESS you NEED ONE FOR YOUR RIFLE;
Have two, one for the Brit and one for the Canadian rifles

The insides of the lids are painted in the original colour that the crates would have been painted in.

Kind of a shame that with all of the boxes that were released over the last dozen years or so, no rifles followed.
