Ballot box used by members of the Upper Valley Community Grange #581. The rectangular box has a slight overhang for the top and base, and the top is divided into two hinged lids with a center pinned section to secure them. The vertical sides have mitered and pinned corners. The front section has two hinges connecting it to the center joint, and the lid lifts with interior curved sides and the front vertical panel to reveal a shallow compartment. There are wire stops on either side to hold this section open. There is a vertical divider between the front and back sections of the box with a round hole cut in the middle of it for placing a vote through anonymously. The back section of the ballot box has a flat hinged lid to cover it that rests on the vertical sides. There is a turned handle pinned to the middle of the back of the ballot box.Acquisition
