Someone on a local Detroit area Historic Preservation site asked me if "LEGO By Samsonite" meant that Samsonite sold the company to LEGO. Well I went off on a long tangent, and I thought I would cut/paste it here on a LEGO forum. Since I wrote this (...) (19 years ago, 23-Dec-06, to lugnet.general)

(...) It's such an unappealling aspect ratio. 6x12 would match the old ones better but I'd be more inclined to 6x14 or 6x16. 6x10 just looks nothing like a real container (half or full). Tim (19 years ago, 23-Dec-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
