Winchester Leader 8 gauge Shells
Thanks to Charlie for alerting me, I was able to acquire a Box of Vintage Winchester Leader Shell box and 19 paper shells. Had a 12 hour round trip to pick them up and pay for them as the seller would only take cash and would not ship. The hard part was convincing my wife to go with me and pick up the shells. ( Did have to take her hiking in New Mexico,buy her breakfast, an ice cream and dinner.) When I proudly carried them to the car like a sacred burial urn, her only remark was that's it???
Appears to have a date of 1904 on the box. Thought I would share the pictures.
