This great old Vintage Rusty Green Metal Box can be used for Storage and/or Display. The clasp has no rust and works as intended. This box is clean. All of the rust is only surface rust. It has a few dents here and there adding to its charm. If you run your hand over the metal on the inside and out it is smooth and clean, nothing comes off on your hand. The slide down tray works fine. The lid opens easily. This box is solid and clean. Please review all photos carefully as they are considered part of the description.
