Great work Pat and thank you for the mention on your site.
After reading through your site I've decided to rename my Kingsize boxes in line with your criteria as it makes sense to have same format throughout the box range.

My next project will be to re-photograph and organise the wonderful art work on the Kingsize boxes.

Glad you like the King Size section, Rodger !

I'll add more E boxes soon and the F boxes will follow. The F boxes have so beautiful artwork and they are also a bit more complex to catalogue. I hope to have at least the general info online soon enough, and then add the multiple views afterwards. I have no less than 71 different variations documented so far only for F boxes.

To all,

I have added an article on the welcome page about RW E Boxes with new variations that are more than just "shades"...!

Pictures will be added in the RW E Box pages this week!

UPDATE : 2016-02-05

To all,

I inserted the 5 variations discussed earlier (more than just shades). Thanks to Kerbside I will be adding 50B and 51B as well in my next update. And who knows, maybe a couple more !

I also added a new variation for the 27C, small numbers with serifs for a D1 box.
