I apoligize for the last post.....cat on keyboard.....
The new packaging is a far cry from the "compartmentalized geek" boxes I
loved as a kid.....To this day I still have the boxes to Universal Building
sets 745 (1976?) and 733 (1979?). They are beat up, but still great storage
and sorting mediums, w/ removable plastic trays and styrofoam frames.....an
environmentalist's nightmare.....
