Original British cardboard egg transport box with printed lid reading “VALUABLE EGGS WITH CARE”. Complete with its original internal corrugated dividers designed to hold 24 eggs. A genuine utilitarian object from Britain’s wartime home-front period, when eggs were collected, pooled and transported under strict handling instructions.
This is not a decorative reproduction but an authentic working packaging box, showing honest wear, staining and patina from use. The typography, construction and materials are characteristic of WWII-era British agricultural and postal supply packaging. Highly sought after by collectors of kitchenalia, agricultural antiques, prop buyers and interior stylists for rustic kitchens, larders and shop displays.
