Original WWII U.S. Army Wooden Shotgun T3AGE 12 Gauge No.08 Chilled Shot Ammunition Crate

Original Item. Only One Available. This is a stellar WWII ammunition crate for 12 Gauge shotgun shells, chilled shot. There are markings across the crate that provide for a magnificent display piece.

The front of the crate reads

300 CARTRIDGES SHOTGUN 12 GAGE
IN CARTONS
T3AGE
NO. 8 CHILLED SHOT
55 WT     23304
9 CU        LOT WRA

The lid of the crate reads SMALL ARMS AMMUNITION LOT WRA 23004. The lid still retains its four screw washers to secure it. There is also a handwritten name and address on the top which could be when a soldier had it sent home.

A great crate, ready for further research and display.
