Commemorative Boxes
This page loads slowly as it has loads of pictures
Richard Wheatley have over the last few years made a number of boxes that commorate events and promote companies. This is a new departure for the company and they linked with businesses and corporate events providers and the fly box becomes a gift to those that attend the sponsored event or advertises the business. These boxes are highly collectable and should be very good in the long term. * swing leaf
