Sexaur Salesmen tool box

My wife found this box at an estate sale a few days ago. Really good condition for what it is. I'm thinking it had to be a salesman kit to show off their products. I don't think it would have all the decals and tray linings inside if it was for plumber use.

Much better condition than mine, which is older, with a leather handle.

Admit it, you thought this was going to be an X-rated thread! Nope, just this 1930’s or 40’s brown crinkle finish Kennedy toolbox that I picked up at a flea market this morning.

So from Lugnutz post it appears they gave these to plumbers, hard to imagine the level of advertising companies used back in the day.

Very cool. I have a more modern Kennedy box that's similar but without the advertising. Would that have been for a plumber or maybe a general handyman? Seems as though product is a furniture/fixture polish.

Looks like a full-service plumber.

How's that Mule Kick beauty cream working out for you?
