Electric blanket box

The Bronte Electric Blanket Co. Ltd (Manufacturer)

Rectangular cardboard box, stapled at each corner; box of pastel green colour on exterior and printed colour paper adhered to lid with picture of a woman asleep in bed and the words SLEEP WARMER in bright yellow; additional small rectangular paper label adhered to lower PR side of top of lid.

Each corner held by three metal staples; the base is folded such that the shorter side edges are outermost, while on the lid, the longer upper and lower edges are outermost; hence, the staples on the base are punched in on the short sides, while on the lid they're stapled into the longer upper and lower edges.
