...it doesn't seem to be a Cracker Jack box. Cracker Jack is not peanut brittle, and the box itself says of the manufacturer "Cracker Jack and Candy Makers." |

I always expected the old boxes to say "Prize Inside!" like the more recent ones. |

That may be because there was no prize inside, since it's not a Cracker Jack box. |

After a little further research it in fact might be only an ancillary piece. It was not advertised as a Cracker Jack box but as a box of Peanut Brittle. I made the leap from there....I don't know when the boxes started saying prizes but they started being put in boxes in 1912. This box was advertised as a Peanut Brittle box and I made the leap, possibly erroneously, to have potentially held the cards. Here is the answer I got from the seller, after the sale....So in fact it might be a pretty, rare, display piece that didn't hold a card... |

It sure is in incredible condition, Leon. I'm sure it never held Cracker Jack, but it might very well be rarer than an actual Cracker Jack box. If guys who specialize in CJ stuff don't have one, it must be quite rare. |
