Sterling Plastics Vintage Recipe Index Card Box NEW #533 LOT OF 12 White & Brown Sterling Plastics Vintage Recipe Index Card Box NEW #533 LOT OF 12 White & Brown At Max Marine Electronics, we always find interesting things. These recipe boxes were part of a large warehouse find we made recently. Back in the early days, mariners used a device called a Loran-C which worked similar to GPS but instead of using satellites, Loran-C used a series of land-based towers. A waypoint on a Loran-C is known as a Loran-C TD. The early Loran-C units did not have the ability to remember these TD's so marine electronics companies would provide a recipe box to customers with these units so they could jot down their TD's and keep them organized and protected. It would appear that this particular company got a bit over-zealous in ordering these recipe boxes and when the Loran-C units were able to remember these TD's, there was no longer a need to store them in a recipe box. These have sat in their original boxes, untouched, for decades. As with any vintage product, there may be a very slight imperfection in the label, but the boxes should be in like-new condition as they were pulled from sealed boxes. These boxes were intended to fit 3" x 5" index cards. This listing is for six white and six brown recipe boxes for total of 12. We have other larger quantities
