An original shipping box for ATLAS miniature jars with bank slot lids. These appear to have been shipped to a church in Berrien Springs, Michigan where, based on some of the jar labeling, they were probably issued to children in Sunday school class for fundraising purposes. Postmark is dated 1958. The box measures roughly 10-1/2" by 10-1/2" by 4-1/2" tall, and still contains 10 of the original 25 jars. Extremely rare to find the original box, and the first example we've seen.
