Trans-continental bolt co? Was at an auction, last weekend, and bought the familiar lookin 3x3 red bolt bins, 120 of 'em fer $50 bucks. Some of them still had the TCB bolts in them!
With this CV quarantine goin on, not any auctions goin on, can't find any yard sales, either!
Anyway, yesterday I was goin through the boxes, and found the original salesman's correspondence card, and it was the same guy that sold the first set, to my grandfather, back in the early '70's last name was Webster, outta Joppa, MD. In faded pen ink, I gots his phone#. for grins I may dial that # and see who answers, after 50 years! Last I remember of him, he paid us a visit, back when I was still workin at the turf farm, in the '90's.
I'll say this much, them bolt boxes sure have lasted, 50 year old red plastic, wif dovetails, on all sides, so you can assemble, as you please, to fit whatever part of a wall you can get them to fit into! other than lego, I ain't seen nothing that's plastic, last that long!
