Condition report:
The boxes are in good condition for their age, showing typical signs of shelf wear and storage. Visible wear includes edge rubbing, corner rounding, and minor surface creasing throughout the cardboard. The Winchester Super Trap Load box displays light scuffing and small nicks at the closure flaps. One Winchester Blank Loads box has prominent handwritten ink markings on the front face. The C-I-L box shows mild foxing and edge wear but remains structurally intact. All four boxes are offered empty and do not contain any ammunition.
