Hey Dan, Great to hear from you and glad that everything is cool.

Thanks,

Perfect! I will check these out -- I think I have seen these types of cases now that I see the photo.
Thanks Dan!

A compact and handy 48-car case! Thanks!

These cases are a Model 5315 made by the Plano Molding Co. in Plano, Il. They are a VERY tough case to find, Thanks for this lead. These used to be sold for fishing tackle in the Sports department at all Walmart Stores, but are no longer available there. They now stock a cheapie smaller case with removable shelves that fall out, and the openings are now too small to fit our Lesneys. Knowing that info, I must now rush to my local JoAnnes Fabrics and Crafts to pick up another 5 or 6 of these for "Collection Overflow". I have started taking my used empty one (that I had to pay $10 for at Macungie this year) with me to big shows. It is large enough to also hold a few "Specials" if I want to show them off or trade with some friends.
Thank You Very Much again for the fresh lead on these Brad, but keep in mind they may or may not be available much longer if they follow Walmart's sales model. Kwakers

On "black Friday" in the USA, my dear wife found 2 of these cases at Joann's -- plus they were 25% off!!
They look very nice and I am excited to put them to use when I get home.
Thanks again Dan!
