Help me ID this vintage Snap-On Socket Wrench Box

[bc88888]

I bought this vintage Snap on Box at auction- It was filled with sockets but only a couple are Snap On. Has a Brass Tag on the front That reads "Geniune Snap On Socket Wrenches Snap On Wrench Company Milwaukee Wis."

Does anyone know how old this would be? Box is extremely dirty, I am working on cleaning it up as we speak. - Pics below

Thanks,

The box is old. SO moved from Milwaukee to Kenosha around 27 or so.

I would be careful cleaning it. If it has collector value - and it likely does - the collectors will likely want it original.

Thanks for the info, I figured it was pretty old based on the tag, although I couldn't find the year they moved. I am just going to try and remove the dirt for know with a nylon brush. It looks like there may still be some black paint on it but I can't really tell
