small Ford tin "Emergency Fuse Kit" with five fuses - What vintage?
 

There is a small Ford "Emergency Fuse Kit" tin for sale on eBay (eBay #272303687110) and I was wondering what years it would be from?

http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/4WAAAO...C8/s-l1600.jpg

I have seen the larger Ford Bulb and Fuse tin boxes before (which seem to be relatively common), but this small "Emergency Fuse Kit" seems to be rather scarce. I'm thinking that, if I cleaned it up, it would make a great Aspirin tin for my wife :D

Thank you for any insight you might be able to provide,

I wouldn't clean it, I would just get 5 fuses and carry it in my car.

B-14527, box of 5, B-14526 fuses. The fuses are 3AG-20 Amp. printed on the side of the metal lid. I see there are available listed in the Ford Chassis parts catalogs back to 1934. The 32 restoration book list the release date as Sept. 1933. I am not sure if the style you show is the same style used all pre war years?? I believe after the war, sometime, the color on the metal container may have changed adding yellow. One of the aftermarket suppliers sells the box in thin cardboard.
