How old do you suppose this mould is?


Recommended Posts

I bought this mould from a guy on the Cast Boolits forum.  I recently acquired a model 1866 Allin Conversion in .50-70 and want to shoot it, so I bought the mould and some brass.  The mould is in great shape; I’m just struck by the box it came in (they are all orange plastic now). They still make this mould, but based on the box, how old do you suppose it is?

I bought moulds back in the early seventies that came in those boxes, but I'm pretty sure that they'd been in use for some time.  I think J-Bar's spot on.

 

Edit:  Found this on Ebay, appearing to be about the same style and labeled as 1950's vintage:
