There are tabs at the top of each side; one has a rounded tab on the end, and the opposite has a slit in the middle. The tab with the slit is bent outward. Two of the box's sides are molded to look like folded paper, and a wire handle is inserted at the overlap point. The bottom is marked, "c. Potok".Context
