The Old Judge paper pack and the graphic used on the slide and shell are nearly identical. When you overlay a slide and shell pack (this is an 1887 20 count slide & shell box) over the earlier paper pack you see they are same size and nearly identical in design. I went 50% transparent on the slide & shell so you can see both packs at the same time.
