This is an older metal (steel) enclosed file/storage box which was made by the Pottsville Foundry & Stove Co., Pottsville, PA.  Their bright logo is intact inside the box. One side hinges open and has a hasp-type closure.  On the opposite side , it has a label area, the kind where you'd slip the label down inside.  Above that is the following:  MAC METAL   FILE, DUST, FIRE, RAT and WATER PROOF.   It measures 12" tall x 11 1/2" deep x 3" wide.  This is the kind of file box that you would stand up like a book on a bookshelf.  It has a multitude of scratches, some paint loss, and inside you will find a bit of surface rust.  I took my pictures outside, so you will see some reflections on the shiny box.  Check out all 9 pictures, so you can determine the condition of this old file box. As you can see from my picture #6, one short end opens as well as the long end or top of box.  Unit weighs approx. 3 lbs. prior to packing.  Be sure to check out all 9 pictures--to see it from most any angle.  I'm guessing this box is from mid century or before. If you buy more than 1 of my items, I will give you a S&H discount.  I've also listed and AMFILE box.
