Can anyone show me which style box a 1973 Ruger old army would have come in?
Thanks

Believe it would be the Ruger Old Army box below. This is the earliest style I remember.

Edited to add: Sorry for the large MB picture. Need a new photo hosting site. Also, this style box was made of thin cardboard with a folding hinge on the lid's back.
