Default Old sealed 7,65mm ammo boxes

Hello!
Here my last 7,65mm Parabellum cartridge "treasures"... First the oldest and the nicest sealed ammo box I could find up today. Then a "Beschuss" (pressure test) box: these cartridges are very nice looking with their bright blue coloured cases...Finally a box of aluminium cased (Avional). A suggestive legend tells that the Swiss used to make these cases from the wrecks of U.S., British and German aircrafts that crashed or forced landed into their borders...
Nothing so special, but these sealed boxes, in mint condition, are getting scarce - and very expensive - even at Swiss Gunshows...
Cheers, Fausto
