This is a World War II British Army vehicle-mounted toolbox in semi-relic condition. Much of the original green paintwork remains approximately 70% coverage across the box. It shows some dents and knocks from use, and light surface rust is present, but there is no heavy corrosion. The box still opens and closes, with the top shelf intact inside, though there is little paintwork remaining internally. The lock is broken, and the handle has rusted solid. The toolbox has been carefully cleaned and is ideal for display or any military collection.
The toolbox came from a private collection in Dieppe and was originally used by the British Army during the Normandy campaign in the summer of 1944. It comes with an A5 laminated information card.
