Vintage aluminum exterior box - Michigan

As seen on some 1950s/1960s Airstreams, generally mounted on the front: an aluminum box complete with lid and hasp to secure, all including much patina. Photos show the unit with dimensions as currently mounted on a piece of plywood. Lid is not truly hinged, but rather lifts to open. One photo shows how this was mounted onto a vintage Airstream photo is not of the offered unit, but is believed to be identical. Make an offer, to include shipping.

Very nice. Somebody will surely want that for their oldie.

It was the battery box. It's where have our two. I call it the mailbox.

Steve,
This looks just like the battery box that was on my 1955 Commodore Vanderbilt. By the way, I sent you a PM.
Regards,
Steve
