Description:4 1/4" x 2 3/4 x 2 1/2 tin box that held 1,000 friction primers from the Frankford Arsenal. Its not legible in this photo but above the cannons it reads, 1000 Friction Primers. These fit in the leather tube pouches (usually incorrectly called fuse pouches) you see all the time for sale, but the tin boxes survive to a much lesser extent. I think they are the cooler of the two which is why I have several of these and none of the other!
