This is a vintage industrial wooden shipping crate manufactured for DuPont, intended for the transport of black pellet powder. The rectangular crate is constructed from wood, likely pine, and features reinforced finger-jointed corners for structural integrity. The exterior displays several original stenciled markings. One end panel features the DuPont company logo in a red oval with the text REG. U.S. PAT. OFF. underneath. The opposite end panel is stenciled in black with 50 LBS., an arched DU PONT, No. 4, PATENT APPLIED FOR, and PELLET POWDER. Both long side panels are stenciled in black with the warnings BLACK PELLET POWDER and DANGEROUS, along with the regulatory marking I.C.C. - 14 within a rectangular border. The I.C.C. - 14 marking indicates adherence to the Interstate Commerce Commission specifications for containers used to ship explosives. This item is an open crate and does not include a lid.
