A box for Yankee Christmas Snow, manufactured by New England Minerals Company of Boston, Massachusetts and New Canaan, Connecticut, ca. 1920s. The front has an image of a snow-covered field with pine trees and a red sun. In the middle of this image is a square-cut hole for viewing the product. The product name is in red ink below the hole. The same image is repeated on the back cover without the hole. Two of the side panels have the product name in green ink within red borders. One of the other panels gives the name and office and factory locations of the company. The last side panel gives suggestions for product use. With a tear where two side panels meet and fairly extensive discoloration, the object is in fair condition.
