Rob, I'm surprised the limber is still for sale, they are so hard to find even over here and I'm sure he would take an offer.
Unfortunately mate when we collect this sort of gear being Broke is pretty standard I think, my kids didn't eat for a couple of weeks while I was buying the bits for the inside of that box ! but I guess it will all be theirs some day .
If we were addicted to drugs it would be an easier habit to quite !

pulling up an old thread here but I have just acquired a complete charging pump box with its internals intact so in the process of replacing them in my other boxes to complete them with the pumps, tools, gauges etc which I have been collecting over the last 15 years or so.

The box pictured with the inserts is pre world war two and possibly a MK1 WWI box ,although the lid has been broken I will have a new one made and restore the box.
There appears to be very little or slight differences between the MK1 and MK2 boxes.

Rob, I have one of those boxes with all the internal woodwork but it is disassembled. Even the original screws are loose still in the box. Can you show some photos detailing how the prices are laid out so I can reassemble it.

Can any of you enlighten me as to the use of the canvas type material on the tops. Is that to add a degree of weather protection?

I came across a box recently with a similar top construction but a small square shape with no markings.

Looking at yours it is a similar style of construction.
