Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums Want to Buy Petroliana WTB: M&S Price Box Inserts

I just got a M&S Price Box for my Tok 39 I'm restoring. Its stamped with the date 1932 on the bottom, and has 4 vertical rows for the inserts. The first insert has "gas, tax, total" on it, the second has the prices, the third has the fractions of a cent, and the last one is separated by a bar and has the total price for how many gallons pumped. I need a set of inserts if anyone has them. The size that all of the inserts are combined is 6.5" x 6". Let me know if anyone has any.

I also would be happy if someone would be willing to scan their inserts so I can print off my own.

And one last thing, the latch for the lid is broken. Its made from a strip of brass and was riveted on. Does anyone have a picture they can post of what it is supposed to look like? I don't have the missing piece, and I would like to try to make a new one.

Thanks, John

This is the Price Box that I have, and these are the inserts that I am looking for. Let me know if you have anything, or if you would be willing to either scan your own or take a good straight on picture that you could then send to me. Thank you for any help.

Just for informational purposes, how do you know your pricer box is from M&S?

Jack Sim

it is stamped on the bottom, along with the date 1932

The pricer box shown in the ad above was adverised a lot by M&S in the late 1920s.
