Is each box “full” live ammo? If so, are all shells Plastic and do they correctly match the box?

No worries, yes it is 2 boxes, filled with live ammunition

Yes each box is filled with live ammo, they are all plastic shells and they are all matching

It kills me that boxes I remember buying are now vintage!

They look great would be awesome as part of a display.

Yep, I remember buying Dove and Quail for $2.00 a box.

I had them up on display on an older rifle display that got sold. In my opinion the older box designs had tons more character and design, along with most things from decades past

Yep…..I guess seeing those boxes and remember buying those and the ones before that were paper hulls, before the plastic makes me kinda vintage also…

I have a lucky paper shell I keep on my desk. Only one I have ever come across. I am on the younger side and paper shells were long gone by the time I was born so its cool to have a piece of history right here

Nothing like the smell of paper hulls on a damp morning. Especially in they are purple 16 gauge.

$1.79/box from JC Penneys in the mid 1970s. Of course, according to the US Inflation online calculator, that would be about $10,64/box in todays' dollars. So, prices from the past are all relative given inflation.
