Scarce Early Winchester 41 Long Rim Fire Ammo 42 Rds

This is an early, partial box, 42 rounds, of .41 Long Rim Fire ammunition manufactured by Winchester from the mid to late 1870's. The two piece buff box with green label has excellent graphics with the early "Metallic Cartridges" call out and the incorrect Stetson's Patent date of "Oct. 24th , 1871" rather than the correct Oct. 31st date. The box is in very good plus overall condition, solid with older repairs and seam separation on the cover corners and light age soiling. The cartridges all have the "H" head stamps. Side labels are partially, about 85-90%, intact. A great looking box that will display well.
