This Winchester Repeating Arms Co. manufactured two piece, full top, cardboard box with green top label and yellow/orange side band contains 35 of the original 50 rounds of Smokeless 22 Short ammunition with copper cases and is in good condition overall. A previous owner has used glue to make multiple repairs to both halves of the box. The cover has been repaired along both left end corners, the right end corners and top seam, and in one location on the back side near the right corner. The bottom of the box is repaired on two corners and one side. The sealing band that would run across the bottom of the box is missing and there is no dot punched date code on the box. The word "SMOKELESS" is printed in red across the top label which features the code 15 underneath the "H" logo and 10-8 in the lower right corner. The front of the side band displays a five line guarantee that is indented, the label codes 107 and 9-15, and the company name. The back of the side band displays four lines of product information ending with "GREASELESS BULLETS" printed in light yellow. One end of the band features the Winchester Smokeless starburst while the other end features a red W overprinted with the box contents in black and the lines "Trade Mark Reg. U. S. Pat / Off, and through't the world" in red at the bottom. The copper casings display the "H-10" headstamp and have a coating of tarnish present.
