Kalamazoo Bats Box Observation

[canjond]

I recently acquired a second Kalamazoo Bats box and I was reminded that the boxes can be found in two different styles... a blue alligator-type pattern and a white flower pattern. I have one of each, and they both have 1887 bands on them. I know a few people on this board own KB boxes. I'm curious as to which design you have.




Edited to add: The blue one belongs to Leon (I "stole" his scan).

[Leon]

here is mine...and I just checked the one on my shelf...it is this one. You must have borrowed a scan of mine Jon?

they look identical to me. I see I type slow and you noticed as well, Leon.

Aloha! Were KB boxes only 2 styles, seems I remember seeing a different style at one time. dave

Leon- 100% correct although I didn't know it was yours. Both images are the best images I have if each style.

Jon-And they have two variations of writing inside (see Legendary auctions lot):

Until Jon showed this flowery one I had only seen the blue version....I do take notice of them but certainly could have missed something...

I didn't even pick up on that. The Legendary example you posted is actually one of the ones I purchased. It is a flower version.
