Title: Antique Snap On Tool Box

I picked this up last night for $30.  It was in the 1948 catalogue.

That's in really nice shape and 30 is pretty much stealing it.

It looks to be about the nicest example I've seen. Usually I have seen them in green. I have one in green but in no where near as nice a shape.

The pics make it look a bit better than it is, but it's pretty good overall.

Snapon sure had some cool boxes back in the day.

Even if you prefer another brand of ratchet you can't argue that snapon was the king of boxes, especially the little ones.
