Default Recruit Cigar Box - Sweet Caporal Box
Just picked these items up. Can anyone help in assessing the era on the Recruit box. (Hoping same package of what T207's came from).

Pretty sure the Recruit box should have the mustachioed Union soldier on front and not the west Point cadet on front to be early enough to have included any of the cards. This one is later.

the Sweet Cap box is far cooler of the two you picked up.

Looks like the stamp in the Recruit box says “Act of 1923 Series 115”

The b18 blanket packaging is most intriguing to me. Is that complete/original?
