Hi Jenneke,

Thanks for showing! This is a very nice and unique box. A rare and desirable box!

Regarding the maker:

Box maker : ECB

Sorry, no, the maker isn’t ECB, but BCN. To be exact: B. C. N. Design Products, Inc. of Middle Village, NY (doing business also under the name “Braun-Crystal Mfg. Co.”).

I’m sure for 100%, as the “gray egg” shown here:

also was made by BCN (btw: BCN stands for Braun-Crystal, Nassau, as the company originally was located in Nassau, NY). BCN’s logo is present also on some Hamilton boxes - and there’s evidence, that BCN was, in fact, the maker of said Hamilton boxes.

Regards

Martin
