19-Set Wooden Transit Chest

[David Dunlop]

On thinking more about these wooden 19-Set Transit Boxes, I think I may have run across a photograph somewhere on the web a time back of a large number of these items stacked up in a warehouse. Some had the fronts open but most were closed. At the time I thought they were probably British and assumed that explained how one had shown up here in Winnipeg.

I think a company called Sabre Industries had been a huge military surplus dealer in town back then and they had been big players in surplus wireless equipment, so figured they were the local source.

I now see why a lot of 19-Set surplus keeps popping up out of Italy.
