Dougiebarder 10 Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Are the plastic bags to waterproof the box? (like a cistern or shower maybe) Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Farrant 44 Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 A transit case maybe? Not sure about the plastic bag, it seems small and may not be the size of the box, this could be misleading us. Link to post Share on other sites

fv1609 32 Posted September 22, 2007 Author Share Posted September 22, 2007 A transit case maybe? In the sense that it carries the plastic bag. it seems small and may not be the size of the box, this could be misleading us. The bag goes inside the box. Link to post Share on other sites

fv1609 32 Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 The contents of this box contain the contents that were in another (larger) box before being processed. Link to post Share on other sites
woa2 10 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 The box is well constructed using Oak with a brass plaque. My guess is that it is for transporting cremated remains back to England? A plastic bag and a laminated sign make me think this is a Post war item - about 1950/60? Link to post Share on other sites

Yes well deduced Robert correct on all counts. It is a Casket, Cremation spec 1965. To be used in conjunction with Coffin, Cremation which differed from Coffin, Burial. Both types of coffin had different specs for England & Wales compared with Scotland & N.Ireland. Anybody know the differences? Link to post Share on other sites
