This steel tool box is from a Fordson tractor and has 'Fordson' embossed on the lid. It is from the 1930's to 40's. The front closure is missing but could be replaced. This tool box has a flat black finish. This could be used as a house mailbox, as a planter, or for storage. This toolbox has a nice look and would be great for someone interested in old tractors or someone named Fordson.
